'To be a good leader you first have to be a good follower, but to be a great leader you have to remember that being a good follower wasn't easy.'
Imagine having access to the planning, training and motivational secrets of Australia's most elite military operators; then imagine being able to adapt what they know to your own everyday life. This is what Bram Connolly gives us in this surprising and clear-headed manual for personal leadership, resilience and success.
Through the tedium of training as a raw recruit and in the pitch of battle during the war in Afghanistan, Bram Connolly reminds us among other things that it's okay to be bored, that laziness can quickly become an habit, that there are advantages in being scared and that it is okay to let go. Autobiographical, honest, and self-deprecating, The Commando Way offers powerful lessons that can be used in all aspects of life.
