Free Amazon Kindle Book: Team Secrets Of The Navy Seals

The Free Amazon Kindle book Team Secrets Of The Navy Seals seems appropriate on the occasion of Osama Bin Laden’s death.  No, the book does not give secrets on how to hunt down and kill fugitive masterminds, but  gives lessons on leadership for an aggressive business environment.

Team Secrets of the Navy SEALs is written especially for business professionals who want to make it in today’s extremely aggressive business environment. No force or unit has ever had more success than the SEALs. Author Robert Needham uses the lessons he’s learned as a Navy SEAL to guide the reader through the role of being or becoming a leader.
