  • Get Your Ship Together with Captain Mike Abrashoff - Part 2 of 2

    In this two part episode we talk with Captain Michael Abrashoff on how he did the unthinkable and turned his ship around.  As the new Commander of the USS Benfold, the challenges he faced were staggering, with low morale and the highest turnover rate in the Navy.  Few thought the ship could improve. Yet 12 months later it was ranked #1 in performance -- using the same crew.  Rocky and Mike discuss how to create a positive work environment with your team, especially when entering conditions where a negative precedent has been set.  We learn how Mike quickly gained the trust of his crew members through servant leadership.
