Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Small Unit Leadership
Dandridge M. Malone · 2011
🎙 Narrated by Alan Bomar Jones
72/100
👍 Worth It
This is a field-tested, no-nonsense leadership manual built for military small-unit leaders, and decades of use in officer training says something about how well it holds up. Civilians will need to translate the combat-focused examples to their own world, but the core lessons on trust and preparing people for pressure still travel well. No independent word on how the narration lands, so go in without strong expectations either way.
