"Una historia real que demuestra que el liderazgo debería implicar delegar el control más que controlar, y crear líderes en lugar de seguidores. «El mejor manual práctico sobre cómo delegar, formar y conseguir procesos sin errores.» Fortune David Marquet, oficial de la Navy con una gran experiencia, estaba acostumbrado a dar órdenes. Cuando accedió al cargo de capitán del submarino nuclear USS Santa Fe, tenía bajo su mando a más de cien marines en las profundidades del mar. Marquet seguía el modelo tradicional de liderar el barco, hasta que un día, involuntariamente, dio una orden imposible y, pese a ello, su tripulación intentó cumplirla. Marquet descubrió entonces que estaba rodeado de seguidores, y que todos estarían en peligro hasta que no se produjera un cambio radical. ¡Cambia el barco de rumbo! es la historia real de cómo el Santa Fe, tras cuestionarse el tradicional modelo líder-seguidor de la Navy, pasó de ser el barco peor valorado de toda la flota a convertirse en el mejor de todos. Su tripulación empezó a sentirse plenamente comprometida y a desarrollar todo su potencial. Independientemente del lugar que ocupe en su empresa, usted también podrá aplicar el modelo de Marquet para cambiar radicalmente el rumbo de su barco. Su recompensa: una organización en la cual las personas asumen plenamente sus responsabilidades, y donde son, en definitiva, más felices. Reseñas: «No conozco un modelo mejor de liderazgo que el del capitán Marquet. En las páginas de este libro, tú también encontrarás un modelo para tus retos.» Stephen R. Covey, autor de Los 7 hábitos de la gente altamente efectiva «Lea ¡Cambia el barco de rumbo! y aprenderá a generar personas resistentes y comprometidas, deseosas de ponerse manos a la obra.» Almirante Thomas B. Fargo, U.S. Navy retirado, excomandante de la flota del Pacífico y presidente de Huntington Ingalls Industries «Esta es la historia del capitán David Marquet y de su aventura sin precedentes en uno de los ambientes más rígidos, a bordo del Santa Fe, un submarino nuclear de la Marina de los Estados Unidos. Tuvo el coraje de reformular su definición de liderazgo y obtuvo unos resultados revolucionarios; en cuestión de meses la tripulación pasó de ser la peor valorada a ser la mejor considerada.» Charlie Kim, fundador y CEO de Next Jump, Inc. «Este libro es un feliz cruce entre La caza del octubre rojo y la Harvard Bussiness School.» Joe Debono, fundador y presidente de MBA Corps y gestor de patrimonios en Merrill Lynch"

[Spanish] - Distánciate: Gana perspectiva para pensar con claridad y tomar mejores decisiones
"Ante los desafíos, los grandes líderes no reaccionan. Dan un paso atrás, ganan perspectiva y toman las mejores decisiones para triunfar. Una guía para pensar con claridad y aprovechar cada oportunidad, sin dejarte llevar por tu ego, tus sesgos o tus emociones. ¿Y si existiera una forma de ver tu realidad con claridad, sin el peso de tus propios prejuicios y emociones? A menudo, el mayor obstáculo para tomar decisiones más sabias y efectivas suele ser nosotros mismos. Nuestra visión limitada sesga nuestras elecciones y nos lleva a defender acciones pasadas en lugar de buscar alternativas mejores. Para avanzar, necesitamos salir de nuestro estrecho punto de vista y ganar una nueva perspectiva. En otras palabras: necesitamos distanciarnos. En Distánciate, el autor superventas y excomandante de la Marina David L. Marquet y el profesor de psicología Michael Gillespie presentan una poderosa herramienta: el distanciamiento. Esta sencilla pero poco aprovechada capacidad nos permite salir de nosotros mismos para ver con claridad y decidir con sabiduría. A través de tres prácticas esenciales: *Distanciamiento del yo: adoptar la mirada de un observador externo. *Distanciamiento espacial: ampliar la perspectiva y vernos como parte de un todo más amplio. *Distanciamiento temporal: tomar decisiones desde el punto de vista de nuestro yo futuro. Combinando ciencia, historias reales y herramientas prácticas, Distánciate nos enseña a elevarnos por encima del ego y la emoción, superar los sesgos que nos limitan y tomar decisiones más claras, inteligentes y conscientes: en el liderazgo, en la vida y a largo plazo. La crítica ha dicho: «Un análisis lúcido, con numerosos ejercicios y preguntas de reflexión muy útiles, para lectores que busquen un nuevo enfoque para la toma de decisiones.» PublishersWeekly «Distánciate es un libro claro, riguroso y profundamente revelador: una auténtica obra maestra.» Ethan Kross, autor best seller de Shift y Chatter «Distánciate es una poderosa herramienta de reinvención personal.» Annie Duke, autora best seller de Thinking in Bets y Quit «Gillespie y Marquet ofrecen herramientas concretas y aplicables para ayudarnos a usar la distancia psicológica y convertirnos en versiones más sabias de nosotros mismos.» Hal Hershfield, autor best seller de Your Future Self «¿Quieres mejorar tu vida tomando decisiones más inteligentes? Empieza por este libro.» Lynn Sherr, periodista de ABC News y autora superventas «Si quieres decidir mejor, necesitas leer este libro.» Verne Harnish, fundador de Entrepreneurs Organization y autor de Start to Scale «Distánciate te permite ver con claridad tus errores y mejorar tus planes y estrategias para la próxima ocasión. Es una lectura esencial para cualquiera que lidere equipos.» Hans Hederström, exdirector general de CSMART"

Distancing: How Great Leaders Reframe to Make Better Decisions
"Brought to you by Penguin. Distance gives you perspective. Bestselling author of Turn the Ship Around! David Marquet and professor of psychology Michael Gillespie show you how to make better decisions by becoming your own coach. Be yourself. Be fully present. Be in the moment. That is the message we hear constantly. Yet, the biggest obstacle to making wiser, more successful decisions is often... ourselves. Our limited perspective biases our choices, leading us to defend past actions rather than seek better alternatives. We need to step outside our narrow view and gain an objective, fresh perspective. In other words, we need a coach. In Distancing, former David Marquet and Michael Gillespie show us how to coach ourselves into making better decisions using a powerful mental technique called psychological distancing. By practicing: • Self-distancing: we can be someone else, adopting a neutral observer’s perspective. • Spatial distancing: we can be somewhere else, zooming out and seeing ourselves as part of a larger picture. • Temporal distancing: we can be sometime else, assessing our decisions through the eyes of our future self. Backed by compelling scientific research, real-world examples and hands-on exercises, Distancing empowers you to break free from self-limiting patterns and make clearer, smarter choices. The tools are simple. The impact is profound. © L. David Marquet 2025 (P) Penguin Audio 2025"

Turn The Ship Around!: A True Story of Turning Followers into Leaders
"Brought to you by Penguin. TIMELESS PRINCIPLES OF EMPOWERING LEADERSHIP | OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD Captain David Marquet was used to giving orders. In the high-stress environment of the USS Santa Fe, a nuclear-powered submarine, it was crucial his men did their job well. But the ship was dogged by poor morale, poor performance and the worst retention in the fleet. One day, Marquet unknowingly gave an impossible order, and his crew tried to follow it anyway. He realized he was leading in a culture of followers, and they were all in danger unless they fundamentally changed the way they did things. Marquet took matters into his own hands and pushed for leadership at every level. Before long, his crew became fully engaged and the Santa Fe skyrocketed from worst to first in the fleet. No matter your business or position, you can apply Marquet's approach to create a workplace where everyone takes responsibility for their actions, people are healthier and happier — and everyone is a leader. ‘One of the 12 best business books of all time’ USA Today ‘The best how-to manual anywhere for managers on delegating, training, and driving flawless execution’ Fortune ‘David Marquet is the kind of leader who comes around only once in a generation. His ideas and lessons are invaluable' Simon Sinek, Start With Why © L. David Marquet 2015 (P) Penguin Audio 2021"

Leadership is Language: The Hidden Power of What You Say and What You Don't
"'Full of compelling advice on how to lead more effectively by choosing your words more wisely' -ADAM GRANT, author of Originals and Give and Take Your words matter more than you think Most of us use the language we inherited from a time when workers worked with their hands and managers worked with their heads. Today, your people do much more than simply follow orders. They contribute to performance and solve problems, and it's time we updated our language to reflect that. In Leadership Is Language, former US Navy captain L. David Marquet offers a radical playbook to empower your people and put your team on a path to continuous improvement. The framework will help you achieve the right balance between deliberation and action, and take bold risks without endangering your mission. Among other things, you'll learn: · How to avoid the seven common sins of questioning, from binary questions (should we do A or B?) to self-affirming questions (B is the better option, right?) · Why you should vote first, then discuss, when deciding on a plan with your team, rather than voting after discussion · Why it's better to give your people information instead of instructions As a submarine captain, Marquet used his counterintuitive model of leadership to turn the worst-performing submarine crew into the best-performing one in the fleet, a story he recounted in his bestselling book Turn the Ship Around! Now, in Leadership Is Language, he draws on a wide range of examples, from the 2017 Oscars Best Picture mishap to the tragic sinking of the SS El Faro, to show you exactly how the words you use (and don't use) impact how your people contribute."
