Sailors are a peculiar lot. They tend to be more self-sufficient, relying on their boat handling skills to get them from here to there and back again, in spite of where the wind is. The observant sailor has many lessons to learn, and this book addresses some of them. The words of renowned sailors, writers, philosophers, and leaders are examined in the light of their applications to sailing and more important to life.
I have known Randy Deering for over 30 years observing his long and varied experience as leadership developer and trainer with supervisors, educators, businessmen and with non-profit organizations. He has a keen understanding of leadership principles and the ability to relate them in practical ways.
