It is well known that although officers may "run the Navy", Navy Chiefs "make the Navy run!" Paul wrote the book on how they do that. Whether a newly selected Chief, an aspiring petty officer looking for advice on preparation to advance to Chief, or a Commanding Officer looking for a tool to offer their wardroom or CPO mess, there is something to learn from this guide! Each chapter offers insights on the values, attitudes, skills, and relationships which enable CPO success, including checklists for self and team improvement in key areas of leadership and management.
