Conquering Crisis: Ten Lessons to Learn Before You Need Them [McRaven, Admiral William H.] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Conquering Crisis: Ten Lessons to Learn Before You Need Them

Review: Excellence in the Art of Leadership - As someone who’s always been drawn to stories of grit and leadership, I picked up Conquering Crisis: Ten Lessons to Learn Before You Need Them by Admiral William H. McRaven with high expectations—and it blew me away. This book hit me at just the right time, as I was navigating some tough challenges at work and in my personal life. McRaven’s words felt like a mentor sitting me down, sharing hard-won wisdom with a steady, reassuring voice. His 40 years as a Navy SEAL and Four-Star Admiral shine through, but it’s his humility and relatability that made this book so personal and impactful for me. What I loved most was how McRaven turned intense experiences—like leading hostage rescues or managing crises as Chancellor of the University of Texas—into lessons I could actually apply. His five-phase framework for handling crises (assess, report, contain, shape, manage) gave me a clear roadmap when I felt overwhelmed. I found myself jotting down notes, especially his advice like “Bad news doesn’t get better with age.” That one hit home—I’ve been guilty of dodging tough conversations, and McRaven’s nudge to face problems head-on has already changed how I approach challenges. The stories he shares are gripping, but they’re more than just war tales. They’re human, raw, and often funny, showing his heart as much as his courage. Reading about his failures and how he learned from them made me feel less alone in my own missteps. The book’s short length was perfect for me—I devoured it over a weekend, and I’ve already gone back to reread my favorite parts. Compared to Make Your Bed, which inspired me years ago, Conquering Crisis feels more like a personal toolkit, tailored to navigating life’s chaos. This book didn’t just teach me—it lifted me up. McRaven’s blend of practical advice and heartfelt storytelling gave me the confidence to tackle my own crises with clarity and purpose. If you’re looking for a guide to lead through tough times or just need a spark of inspiration, this is it. Conquering Crisis is now a go-to on my shelf, and I can’t recommend it enough.
Review: Read and/ or listen to this book—at least twice. - A book that every business leader should read. The admiral is an excellent narrator and teacher. I loved his honesty and frankness. The bottom line is that unexpected and undesirable things happen, and you will rise to the level of your training and preparation. Always prepare.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mc Raven's books are the best.... have read them all.
*by N***S on May 19, 2025*

Lessons are always learned reading McRaven's book. You learn about character, military/US security history, and how to get back on track if things didn't go right. People are not perfect but if you learn from your mistakes, are honest about what went down, and keep yourself accountable, there are paths to move forward. I picked up the author's 1st book at a gift shop of all places. (Make Your Bed) Since then I have read them all. This new book is as good as the rest. Easy quick reads that teach so much!
