Publisher's summary

This program is read by the author.

A leadership book by former Navy SEAL and New York Times best-selling author Mark Divine, Staring Down the Wolf focuses on harnessing the principles of purpose and discipline in life to achieve success.

What does it take to command a team of elite individuals? It requires a commitment to seven key principles: Courage, Trust, Respect, Growth, Excellence, Resiliency, and Alignment. All of these are present in an elite team which commits to them deeply in order to forge the character worthy of uncommon success.

Retired Navy SEAL Commander, entrepreneur and New York Times best-selling author Mark Divine (founder of SEALFIT, NavySeal.com, and Unbeatable Mind) reveals what makes the culture of an elite team, and how to get your own team to commit to serve at an elite level. Using principles he learned on the battlefield, training SEALs, and in his own entrepreneurial and growth company ventures, Mark knows what it is to lead elite teams, and how easily the team can fail by breaching these commitments.

Elite teams challenge themselves to step up everyday to do the uncommon. Developing the principles yourself and aligning your team around these commitments will allow you to thrive in VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity) environments, no matter your background or leadership experience. Drawing from his 20 years leading SEALs, and 25 years of success and failure in entrepreneurship and 10 years coaching corporate clients, Mark Divine shares a very unique perspective that will allow you to unlock the tremendous power of your team.

TRUE WARRIOR LEADER

I cannot recommend this enough. Mark is an extraordinary leader...this book is a new kind of leadership book.
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon

A definite eye opener.

I will be applying these techniques to build a better team and not to be complacent in any situation even if it's been repetitive work. Very good book will highly recommend

amazing book for elite teams

If you are someone who is seeking team support and are tired of the same old advice, I encourage you to read this book and give the exercises a chance.

absolutely solid!

once again, Mark brings uncommon wisdom to us. this book, and much of Mark's work is different from many of the seals that we get a chance to hear from. Mark calls us to look inward, stating that growth should be above achievement. I think that's exactly right. this is definitely a book I'll be recommending.

Must read if you’re serious about improving your personal and business life

Really good book. Lots of examples from the author and the his experiences in business, SEALs, and in life.

Live Your Ethos

As a law enforcement sergeant and student of leadership, I strongly recommend this book for any current and aspiring leaders that intend to make a difference anywhere God calls them to lead. Whether in the field, on a field, an organization or in your faith let Mark’s words awaken the leader within to live your ethos!

Unbeatable Training for an Unbeatable Leader

As a longtime follower of the Mark Devine's Unbeatable Mind philosophy, this installment really nails down the nuts and bolts to becoming an Unbeatable Leader. Now it's time to Stare Down the Fear Wolf and improve the world.

Unique perspective!

One of the very few books of it's kind that really resonated with me👍 Mark surprisingly, from a military background, gets to the core being of humanity. Thanks for your shared perspective on how to operate effectively with purpose and love in any walk of life.

Excellent

Easy to listen to and follow. Useful and interesting. I liked the story about the woman being the best poacher hunters. Now I feel that I really need to dial in my breathing and meditation practices and take on a material art, as well as become successful in the business world.

No BS just practical tools

Commander Divine hits the mark with this book chockfull of practical tools for all leaders today. A nice accompaniment to his other books tying all the personal lessons together and demonstrating how they can impact leadership.
