6 Principles From the Navy SEAL Code That Will Make Your Team Stronger
Business leaders are constantly searching for ways to build highly effective teams that can deliver results in a rapidly changing business landscape. I've searched high and low, drawing inspiration from philosophy, history and literature. However, I've found the deep tradition of leadership established in the U.S. military, and specifically the Navy SEALs' code of conduct, to be particularly helpful.
The SEAL code is a set of guiding principles that embody the warrior ethos of the Navy SEALs. It is a code of conduct that all SEALs are expected to live by, both on and off the battlefield. The code is based on a set of core values that are central to the SEAL ethos, including loyalty, honor, courage, discipline, respect and excellence.
These values are not just ideals or aspirations but a way of life that SEALs are expected to live and uphold at all times. They are the foundation of the SEAL ethos and are critical to the success of SEAL teams in achieving their missions.
Business leaders can learn a great deal from the SEAL code and apply its principles to develop highly effective teams in mid-sized organizations. Read on to discover some ways that business leaders can utilize the SEAL code to build strong, cohesive and high-performing teams.
