      Summary of Extreme Ownership - Instaread Summaries

      OVERVIEW

      Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin is a guide to applying leadership principles of the United States Navy’s Sea, Air, and Land Teams (SEALs) to business. At the center of the strategies that Willink and Babin illustrate is taking complete responsibility for everything in which all leaders are involved.

      Willink was the commander of Babin who was a platoon commander of SEAL Task Unit Bruiser which was deployed to Baghdad and Ramadi during the Iraq War. Throughout their deployments, they helped clear insurgent forces from large portions of both cities and established a US military presence that helped stabilize the region. They worked closely with US Marines, Army, Air Force, and Iraqi Army troops in missions that extended deep into enemy-held territory. In the course of the complex missions they carried out, Willink and Babin often had to adapt to unusual or rapidly changing circumstances.

      When they completed their deployments, Willink and Babin directed SEAL leadership training and witnessed how effective leaders emerged in the most difficult phase of training. After Willink and Babin left the SEALs, they founded the leadership consulting firm Echelon Front to bring the leadership lessons of the SEALs to the private sector. Among the lessons they teach are that a team is only as good as its leader, that ego is an obstacle to finding solutions, and that discipline results in freedom.
