Admiral McRaven was given the title "Bullfrog" as the Navy SEAL who had served the longest on active duty. He received this honor in 2011 when he took charge of the United States Special Operations Command, after which he retired in 2014 with 37 years of service under his belt.
Over the course of his career, he led men and women at every level of the special operations community and dealt with numerous leadership challenges, including commanding combat operations such as the capture of Saddam Hussein, the rescue of Captain Phillips, and the raid for Osama bin Laden.
The Wisdom of the Bullfrog provides listeners with the most important leadership lessons that Admiral McRaven has learned from his incredible life experiences. The book covers crisis situations, management debates, organizational transitions, and ethical dilemmas, and is organized into chapters that each provide a Make Your Bed-like parable.
Through these parables, The Wisdom of the Bullfrog shares insights on the specific leadership traits required to be at the top of your game, such as Who Dares, Wins; Run to the Sound of the Guns; and No Plan Survives First Contact with the Enemy.
Admiral McRaven's treatise is a clear-eyed view on the leadership qualities that separate the good from the truly great. Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting out, The Wisdom of the Bullfrog is an essential read for anyone looking to improve their leadership skills.
Retired 4 star Admiral William McRaven said in his new book “The Wisdom of the Bullfrog” that a true leader is defined by the quality and character of the person. There has to be a sense of trust and integrity to be an effective leader.
