The Dichotomy of Leadership - Chapter 1 - Audio Book

Dichotomy of Leadership follows the same general format as Extreme Ownership. The book is divided into three parts:
1. Balancing People
2. Balancing the Mission
3. Balancing Yourself
Each part is then divided into four different chapters---so twelve chapters all together---with each one covering common issues that leaders face. Special emphasis is put on balancing preferable leadership qualities without going to extremes. Here's a quick summary of each chapter:
1. Care about your individual team members, but accept that you might have to sacrifice individuals to save the group.
2. Claim ownership, but don't micromanage others so much that no one else has the opportunity to take control and feel ownership themselves. (One of my favorite chapters.)
3. Be resolute but not overbearing.
4. Do everything you can to help struggling team members, but know when it's time to fire them.
5. Train your team well, but don't be so hard on people that they become overwhelmed and can no longer learn.
6. Be aggressive but not reckless.
7. Be disciplined but not rigid. Allow for flexibility.
8. Hold people accountable, but don't smother them with direction.
9. Be a good follower if you want to be a good leader. (Another favorite!)
10. Plan, but don't over-plan.
11. Be humble, but don't be passive. Prioritize when to push back.
12. Know the details of the mission, but also be detached enough that you can see the big picture.

My friend David killed himself because of Iraq and Afghanistan.I had a hard time trying to understand why David would end his life. This helps me realize what he went through. Thank you for all you do. To all servicemen and servicewomen. Bless you.

As long as we are honouring war and aggressions, there's no hope for humanity.
This book must be condemned, not condoned it.

[@danielbaker7213]

You’re welcome that ppl sacrifice their lives, so you can have the right to express your garbage opinion...

[@user-ej2xz3lx2e]

If you read the book you'd know that it's not "about war" but about life.

[@danielbaker7213]

Yes I understand it’s about the principles that one applies in life, they just use situations to give examples, homeboy from the comment above made me angry in that instance so when that happens I definitely don’t think before I speak
