Through those difficult months of sustained combat, Jocko, Leif and their SEAL brothers learned that leadership - at every level - is the most important thing on the battlefield.

Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc's life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn't swim. But what was the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who called himself the "King of the Jungle". When Marc's mother tells him that his uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can't wait. Uncle Jake is a for-real super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan.

In Way of the Warrior Kid, Marc went from wimp to warrior in one summer. He learned to be strong inside and out, mastered his multiplication tables, conquered his fear of swimming, and even made nice with the meanest kid on the playground (who turned out to be not so mean after all). Now, in this second audiobook in the middle grade Warrior Kid series, Marc uses what he learned last summer to help another kid who needs a boost. Can he take the skills he learned from his Navy SEAL uncle Jake to instill the warrior spirit in someone who needs his help?

Tough Guys Teach Hard Lessons
If you could sum up Extreme Ownership: How US Navy SEALs Lead and Win by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin | Key Takeaways, Analysis & Review in three words, what would they be?
Gritty authors Jocko Willink and Leif Babin's voices alone would be intimidating if their message wasn't so on pointe. Excellent book on leadership told in an engaging way. With real world examples both on the battlefield and in business, this book was a refreshing and unexpected way at creative solutions for life's and business problems.

good basic summary
good basic overview of the book with the points of leadership but nothing entertaining like the stories or anything else which would generally be the reason a person would buy the book if you're interested in this at all you should definitely purchase the full book it's worth the extra 10 bucks or so

You should listen to audible before you do an overview
At the very least you should get the names of Important People and Places correct.

Key Takeaways
I appreciate the organization of the narrative. This makes the entire book more understandable as it drops the military language and jargon. While I found the military scenarios engaging I needed the meat of the examples for knowledge and application. This book does that for me. Useful and immediately applicable. Recommended for all leaders new, Old or wannabe.
