What would you tell a junior engineer who feels so overwhelmed with the tasks he is supposed to be focused on that he decides not to switch task to solving this other thing that may-or-may-not be a real problem?
Also, are the phrases “Extreme Ownership” and “Question Behind the Question” from a US Navy SEAL book by Willink and Babin? Would you generally recommend that book?
- pchristensen 8y agoI can highly recommend the book "Extreme Ownership" and Jocko's podcast. I haven't read his subsequent books but I assume they're also great.
- matwood 8y agoI’ll second the Jocko book recommendation. His podcast is also good. Pick out the QA episodes if you want mostly leadership questions.
- jklinger410 8y agoCorrect on the book for extreme ownership. The other book is "QBQ! The Question Behind the Question: Practicing Personal Accountability in Work and in Life" by John G Miller.
