Since 1952 this classic handbook has helped young naval officers take charge of their first division and has served as a valued resource for petty officers and more senior officers. In clear and concise language it lays out the basic tools for a junior officer: leadership, organization, management, training, personnel, administration, career management, information flow, and a host of other key lessons. This new edition, revised by two serving naval officers with decades of experience, brings the guide fully up to date for the challenge of twenty-first century leadership and management both afloat and ashore. Capturing dramatic changes in networked management systems, installed shipboard LANs, the use of e-mail as a basic tool, and mentoring concepts for sailors, and offering updated figures, appendices, and links to key websites, this is an indispensable part of the seabag of every junior officer in today's Navy.
