This presentation is based on L.David Marquet's book, "Turn the Ship Around", a semi-autobiography on how he managed a crew of 135 men in a $2 billion nuclear submarine.
Empowering your staff to become an elite in their career path can be an almost impossible process - quite akin to leading a horse to water. Marquet details the four elements of what it takes to truly and permanently guide your team mates into transforming their outlook on work in a very meaningful, effective way.

Turn your followers into leaders
1. Turn Your Followers into Leaders
“How to permanently empower your
team without creating chaos.”
By Pam Cheing, Marketing Manager at iconnect360
2. “TURN THIS SHIP AROUND!”
This presentation is based on the true story of the USS Santa Fe
3. “Leadership is the art, science or gift by
which a person is enabled and privileged
to direct the thoughts, plans and actions
of others in such a manner as to obtain
and command their obedience, their
confidence, their respect and their loyal
cooperation.”
- Naval Academy leadership book
16. Does this sound familiar?
“You guys should show more
initiative”
“Think outside the box”
“Take leadership” “Be more responsible”
17. And then what do you think happens when
you do decide to do something on your own?
“You don’t show enough teamwork”
“You don’t respect management”
“Why are you wasting time on this?”
“Your method is wrong.”
“No one will care.”
“Just do what you’re told.”
18. Why does everybody avoid
empowerment
(including the person in charge)?
Because of FEAR.
(If it fails, it’s YOUR fault)
19. YOUR FAULT
YOUR FAULT

20. Because they do it for the wrong
reasons.
e.g. Just following the SOP, doing it to
please somebody, for a promotion, to
avoid problems
21. Find an ultimate purpose
This is the reason why everyone will
work towards something special, every
day for the rest of their lives.
40. But they are already affecting your future in the company
according to the things you do or do not do.
41. Just like you, they want a better way of
doing business, too.
Don’t be afraid to ask:
What is it like in the Sydney office?
What would you do in this situation?
Could you advise me on …
56. Begin with the end in mind
Seriously, where do you
see yourself in five
years?
57. Actually, don’t protect them.
They will learn faster from mistakes.
What would you like to achieve in the next
12 months?
Stop and think about how much you’ve changed
in the past 12 months.
59. Here’s what we’re going to start
working on:
• Give more control to each other
• Avoid giving orders
• When you do give orders, leave room for questioning
• Focus on people
• Aim to not be missed when (if) you leave the company
• Be curious
• Pass information
• Get rid of steps that don’t add value
60. Of course it’s not going to be easy. Being a
leader is not easy. There is going to be a lot
of trial and error.
But let’s do it anyway.
61. As the founding members of the marketing
team, let’s create a legacy at iconnect360.
