About this listen

Military precision meets corporate success in One Mission, as former Navy SEAL Chris Fussell draws on his extensive experience of high-pressure teamwork to show how organizations can become flatter, quicker, and much more collaborative across departments and divisions.

'Chris Fussell is one of the most dynamic thinkers of our day. His ideas and his perspectives have challenged many of my own assumptions and pushed me to think bigger. I’m smarter because of Chris Fussell. Read this book!' – Simon Sinek, bestselling author of Start With Why


Whilst sharing his own military experience, Fussell explores examples of transition in companies ranging from industry titans like Intuit and Under Armour to small businesses, which have all adopted the ‘Team of Teams’ model in order to unite everyone around single compelling mission. The result is a ‘shared consciousness’ that drives consistently better results with less friction and inter-group rivalry.

Whether you're a start-up or a corporate giant, One Mission is a practical handbook for any leader looking to evolve their workforce into a highly mobile and effective unit and inspire their teams to look beyond their narrow field of vision to understand – and effectively contribute to – the organization’s one true mission.

The steps of transition include:
· Achieving strategic alignment: communicating organizational priorities down the chain of command.
· Determining operating rhythm: organizing regular company catch up and feedback sessions.
· Setting up communication and decision-making processes: developing a hybrid decision-making structure to empower and inspire every person on the team.
· Shifting leadership behaviour: ensuring successful transition with radical humility by starting with the leader and continuing down the chain of command.

The author has obviously achieved something worth learning but the book is written badly. He uses overly complicated wording all the way through, making it unnecessarily difficult to read. This book could have been written in more accessible language but instead seems to try to be more of an academic paper than a book a layperson can pick up. Shame.

Tries too hard to be complex.

I struggled to finish the book which was a shame because I love Team of Teams. Storytelling didn’t flow. Fell the book was more aimed at academics, rather than business people?


After team of teams, I had hopes
