A three-time Navy SEAL platoon commander and founder of Perfect Fitness shares insights on building effective teams by leveraging core values such as service to others, trust, empathy, and a supportive environment. Drawing from his unique experiences in both military and civilian sectors, Alden Mills emphasizes that successful teams thrive on interconnected relationships and a collective focus rather than individual talent. He illustrates that creating a strong foundation for oneself is essential, as it enables individuals to support each other in achieving shared goals. This approach is applicable to managers in various organizations—private, public, and nonprofit—offering strategies to inspire and lead effectively. Mills highlights common misconceptions, such as confusing groups of individuals with cohesive teams, and underscores the importance of recognizing our shared motivations: the will to survive, the desire for personal gain, and the yearning to belong to something greater. By fostering care among teammates, individuals are encouraged to take risks for the collective benefit. The book advocates for embracing diverse perspectives to generate innovative ideas, making these lessons relevant not only to Navy SEALs but also to entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, and coaches. It serves as a practical guide for cultivating care-based teams that empower members to exceed their own expectations.
