Dave Berke is a retired U.S. Marine Corps officer, fighter pilot and TOPGUN instructor, -- his new book is The Need to Lead (pub date Oct 21). Currently Chief Development Officer at Echelon Front, Dave teaches readers the importance of leadership and how to implement it to become a better leader themselves.With a foreword by Jocko Willink, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Extreme Ownership, THE NEED TO LEAD argues that understanding leadership is crucial for universal success. By adopting proper leadership mindsets and behaviors, individuals can solve problems, support others, and correct mistakes. The book's wisdom and instruction stems from Dave's real-life experiences in training, combat, the boardroom, and at home as a husband and father.THE NEED TO demonstrates that we need to embrace the following 4 principles:Everyone at all levels is a leader and the more people see themselves as one the more they want to contribute to the team's successLeadership exists outside the professional world and the same behaviors should guide us as parents, spouses, family members and friendsThe problems we confront at work aren't caused by external factors, they are caused by our failure to leadLeadership is a skill that can be learned.
