Their ability to take charge in battle often determined whether their men lived or died.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be wondering how this is relevant to you if you\u2019re not in the military.

As it turned out, it wasn\u2019t the mujahadeen at all; it was another SEAL unit and, in the chaos of the friendly fire, a soldier lost his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the ranking officer in the operation, there was only one thing Willink was certain of: everything that went wrong was his responsibility. And guess what? By taking ownership of this horrible event, he saved his job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>His superiors knew what business leaders don\u2019t: every leader makes mistakes, but only the good ones take responsibility for them. That\u2019s why he was allowed to keep command of his unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The importance of the commander\u2019s attitude<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The importance of the commander\u2019s attitude can also be seen during the worst-case-scenario training that SEAL teams undergo. Units that underperform typically have leaders who blame either the scenario, their subordinates or the troops themselves. In other words, by refusing to take responsibility, they fail their missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, the SEAL units that perform the best in training are led by commanders who readily shoulder blame, seek out constructive criticism, and take detailed notes on how to improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When leaders fail to take responsibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When leaders fail to take responsibility, the consequences can be far-reaching. For instance, in Willink\u2019s experience, when a poor SEAL leader blames everyone but himself, that bad attitude is passed on to his subordinates who then do the same. This results in the team becoming ineffectual and incapable of carrying out their plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such a team just makes excuses and passes the buck, instead of adjusting to and solving the problems that inevitably arise. By the same token, the subordinates of leaders who take&nbsp;<em>total<\/em>&nbsp;responsibility emulate that behavior themselves. As a result, accountability and initiative spread all the way down the chain of command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme Ownership Key Idea #2: To successfully execute your mission, understand its importance.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When Willink\u2019s military commanders told him that his elite, impeccably trained SEAL team would be fighting side-by-side with the newly minted Iraqi army, his first reaction was \u201chell no.\u201d He felt the Iraqis were poorly trained, horrendously equipped and occasionally disloyal to their American allies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, he kept quiet and didn\u2019t share his negative feelings with his troops. How come?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, before speaking out against the plan, he had to figure out&nbsp;<em>why<\/em>&nbsp;it was being implemented. As it turned out, including the Iraqi army in Navy SEAL operations was actually a strategic move intended to eventually enable the withdrawal of US forces from the country. Once he learned this, he could believe in the mission and convince his team to do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding is key<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So he went to work passing his conviction onto his unit. Once they too understood why the mission had been assigned, they were also able to commit to it and help carry it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if Willink had questioned the mission outright, openly voicing his criticisms to his unit, the backlash from his team would have increased dramatically. Even if he had later seen the light of day and tried to convince them to support the mission, their doubts probably would have remained, and the mission may have failed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pre-requisite: Be A True Believer <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, whether you\u2019re the head of an elite military fighting unit or a corporate team, you as a leader need to be a\u00a0<em>true believer<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 that is, you must fully support the objectives of your team. So when you receive an order that seems questionable, you should consider how its objectives might align with the greater strategic goals of the organization you work for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, as a leader, you\u2019re a part of something that\u2019s bigger than both you and your team. If you can\u2019t understand why you\u2019re being asked to do something, it\u2019s on you to seek answers from someone higher up the chain of command. Asking your superiors why a decision was made can be daunting, but a failure to secure this strategic understanding means eschewing your responsibility, a move any good leader must avoid at all costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme Ownership Key Idea #3: Treat your allies as a support network, not as competition.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While carrying out a mission in the dangerous city of Ramadi, Iraq, the SEAL unit of one of the authors, Leif Babin, found itself deep in enemy territory with no backup. To get out, they had no option but to risk walking through the city in broad daylight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chances of an enemy attack were sky-high, but the team made it back to base unscathed. That being said, after the mission, Babin discovered that he had made an error; there was another SEAL team close by that could have offered cover for his unit. However, he had been so focused on the problems of his own team that he had never thought to ask for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Failure is inevitable &#8211; if you don&#8217;t lead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of this, he failed to employ one of the most fundamental Navy SEAL tactics: \u201ccover and move,\u201d which basically means work as a team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea is that every element must work together and support all the others to achieve the overall mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the example above, Babin had been so myopically focused on his own unit\u2019s objectives of \u201cevacuation without injury\u201d that he had forgotten what the other SEAL units were doing and how they could work together. As a result, he had put his team in greater danger than was necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So whether it\u2019s in a combat setting or a business context, leaders have to keep one eye on the mission at hand and one on the broader organization, including other teams that might offer strategic support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, in Babin\u2019s work as a business consultant, he once noticed that different teams within the same corporation were blaming each other and competing against one another. They were in obvious violation of the principle of \u201ccover and move,\u201d which clearly states that internal teams should support one another and remember that the enemy is external, not internal. In other words, the competition isn\u2019t the guy in HR, but the other firms who are trying to steal your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme Ownership Key Idea #4: Remain effective under pressure by setting clear priorities and acting upon them.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s midnight in Ramadi. The SEAL team has just left a building by moving onto what they thought was the roof of the building next door. However, this seeming roof turned out to be a mere tarp, and one SEAL has fallen through the covering and landed 20 feet below, injured and exposed. The unit itself is extremely vulnerable, deep in enemy territory without backup, with a wounded comrade and an enemy bomb at the building\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should the leader do?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturally, in this situation, a number of problems are competing for attention. That\u2019s why it\u2019s the leader\u2019s job to stay calm and decide on the best possible course of action. To do so, Babin thought back to his SEAL training and drew on a particularly useful principle: \u201cprioritize and execute.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To remember this principle, SEALs verbalize it in the mantra, \u201crelax, look around, make a call.\u201d Even highly competent leaders will grow overwhelmed if they try to tackle every issue simultaneously, which is why it\u2019s essential to decide on the top priority and focus on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Know Deeply: the Strategy, the tactics, how to operationalise both <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once that\u2019s done, the leader can move to the next priority and put his team\u2019s focus there. Babin\u2019s first priority was security; his second was reaching the wounded soldier; and his third priority was getting a head count of all his men. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking a mental step backward to assess the scenario calmly, he managed to do his job, despite the extreme pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Business leaders can use a similar approach. As a businessperson, you probably won\u2019t find yourself in life-and-death situations, but you can still benefit from prioritizing and executing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here\u2019s how:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In any given situation, begin by evaluating your highest priority. Once you\u2019ve done this, simply and concisely communicate this priority to your team. Then seek input from key leaders around you on how to solve the problem at hand and, finally, focus your team\u2019s resources on executing this plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, you can move to your next priority and repeat the process. But remember that, as priorities shift, you need to be sure to communicate the change to your team too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme Ownership Key Idea #5: Planning for success means comprehensively identifying and mitigating risks ahead of time.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just minutes before the launch of a SEAL operation to rescue an Iraqi hostage who was being held by Al-Qaeda, Babin\u2019s intelligence officer told him that the hostage was not only surrounded by explosives but also guarded by bunkered machine guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an instant, the operation\u2019s risk level skyrocketed. Nonetheless, Babin moved forward as planned, because he had\u00a0<em>already<\/em>\u00a0accounted for this extra danger, even before he knew it existed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thinking Fast &amp; Slow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a SEAL unit commander, he\u2019d already assumed the existence of such hazards. To do anything else would have been to ignore his total leadership responsibility in the situation. Factoring such potential risks into the comprehensive plans he had prepared and outlined for his troops was simply due diligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He had put in place steps to mitigate the risk of potential explosives and machine guns surrounding the target. Because of this thorough planning, there was no need to make a new plan, despite this substantial new intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Such preparedness is so vital that Babin often uses this situation as a training scenario for SEAL recruits. He asks them a difficult question: \u201cWould you still have executed this mission after discovering these risks?\u201d And the correct answer is always yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lessons for Leaders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The lesson here is that leaders, regardless of context, should always take the time to generate a detailed plan that identifies, quantifies and mitigates all known potential risks. Making such comprehensive contingency plans helps reduce risks in the future because every person in the operation knows exactly what to do if things go off the rails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes success more likely since your team is prepared for the unknown. Remember, there will be risks that can\u2019t be mitigated, good leaders concentrate on the risks that can be controlled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme Ownership Key Idea #6: Instead of resenting interference by your superiors, make sure you\u2019re giving them the information they need.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When Babin and Willink were in Iraq as SEAL unit commanders, Babin would frequently burst into Willink\u2019s office, demanding to know why their commanding officer was bombarding him with emails asking what Babin felt were stupid questions. Why was he being pestered in this way? Didn\u2019t the commanding officer know how many important things he had on his plate?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To this question, Willink simply replied, \u201cNo, because you\u2019re not taking responsibility for telling him.\u201d This helped Babin eventually realize that the higher-ups weren\u2019t psychic; they were only asking about his operations because he hadn\u2019t given them sufficiently detailed updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Communication, Communication, Communicate!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The commanding officer was just trying to get the information he needed to approve Babin\u2019s plans himself, pass them up the chain of command for final approval and enable Babin to execute his combat missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This realization taught him an important lesson: he had to check his own negative attitude and do his best to provide highly detailed operation-planning documents to his superiors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Extreme Ownership\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"640\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com.au\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=ll1&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_b715lBr38aY3PZ&#038;asin=1760558206&#038;tag=bywineexecu09-22\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, many business leaders don\u2019t understand that this is necessary to maintain good relationships with their supervisors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to win support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many leaders think that, if their boss isn\u2019t giving them the support they and their team need, it\u2019s the boss\u2019s fault. But what they really need to do is take a look in the mirror and remember that it\u2019s their own responsibility to provide the critical information their bosses need to give them support and make decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put differently, a good leader always pushes awareness of a situation both up and down the chain of command.
