Author's Synopsis
Lead with purpose... even when time is short.
Every day is an opportunity to lead. Helm & Horizon: Daily Leadership Principles for the Motivated Sailor is a 365-day leadership guide built for busy leaders who still take growth seriously, delivering practical wisdom drawn from classic leadership works, naval history, and real-world experience. Each concise, focused entry is crafted for leaders whose time is limited but whose commitment to growth is not.
Helm & Horizon integrates leadership wisdom from best-selling authors like Jocko Willink (Extreme Ownership), Stephen Covey (The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People), Ryan Holiday (The Obstacle Is the Way), L. David Marquet (Turn the Ship Around!), and Sun Tzu (The Art of War), alongside real-world naval case studies from iconic figures like Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, Admiral Hyman G. Rickover, and Medal of Honor recipients like Chief Boatswain's Mate James E. Williams. From Viktor Frankl's exploration of finding meaning in suffering (Man’s Search for Meaning) to Angela Duckworth’s emphasis on grit (Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance), the book connects deeply personal growth lessons to universal leadership challenges.
Each of the 365 daily entries is designed to teach a leadership principle in a clear, concise manner, offering practical insights that can be immediately applied to everyday life. Read one page a day. Reflect on the principle. Take one concrete action. Over time, you’ll build the habits, character, and perspective of a leader people trust when it matters most. Helm & Horizon is a guide for anyone who wants to lead with purpose, vision, and discipline.
The leadership journey starts with you.
Lead with Purpose. Take the Helm. Keep Your Eyes on the Horizon.
