* Classic junior-officer's guide, brought right up to date by two servingnaval officers *Covers all the basic skills required for efficient charge of a divisionSince 1952 this classic handbook has helped young US naval officers take charge of their first division and has served as a valuable resource for petty officers and more senior staff. In clear and concise language, it lays out lessons covering the basic tools for a junior officer: leadership, organisation, management, training, personnel, administration, career management, information flow, and a host of other key requirements.This new edition, revised by two serving naval officers with decades of experience, brings the guide fully up to date for the challenge of twenty-first-century leadership and management, both afloat and ashore. Capturing dramatic changes in networked management systems, installed shipboard LANs, the use of email as a basic tool, and mentoring concepts for sailors, as well as offering updated figures, appendices and links to key websites, this is an indispensable part of the seabag of every junior officer in today's US Navy.
