In a groundbreaking, narrative-driven book for businesses, managers (and those who aspire to the managerial ranks), and entrepreneurs, a veteran Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer shows how the skills that enable SEAL teams to achieve the impossible in the battlefield can help business executives and career-minded individuals make better decisions and get the best out of their teams. Anyone can make good decisions when everything is in their favor. But in life, as in war, it’s in chaotic, challenging times that genuine leaders distinguish themselves. As a Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer, Rob Roy learned this lesson over twenty-five years of combat, in which the difference between life and death was his team’s ability to decode complex environments, take decisive action, and seize opportunities when they presented themselves. In The Navy SEAL Art of War, Roy decodes the leadership lessons of the battlefield for today’s business leaders and individuals: how to make good decisions under pressure, how to utilize and leverage the strengths of others while minimizing the weaknesses of the individual or team, and how to act instead of react, anticipating events despite having minimal information and effectively communicating tasks and priorities. Illustrated with countless stories from the front lines, and featuring unprecedented exercises and drills from the SEALs’ training program, The Navy SEAL Art of War is destined to take its place aside It’s Your Ship as a bestselling business classic.

During world war ii in France, a Swiss Reformed Protestant named Roger Louis Schütz-Marsauche began reaching out to suffering people, in particular refugees from the war. Through his efforts, Taizé Community, located in Taizé, Burgundy, France, was birthed. Wanting to provide an atmosphere of love, acceptance, and unity where “reconciliation” could take place between those of different beliefs and religious persuasions, “Brother Roger” created what has become an internationally recognized ecumenical monastic brotherhood where a hundred thousand mostly young people visit each year. In addition, Taizé worship services are taking place in many churches throughout the Western world. While no one can question Brother Roger and the “Taizé Brothers” sincere desire to help others, this passion overrode a desire for biblical discernment, and they neglected to protect and uphold the Gospel message that presents a narrow way to truth, wherein salvation comes only through one Person rather than all paths leading to God. This book examines Taizé—the community and the worship—through the filter of Scripture.

DURANTE LA SEGUNDA GUERRA MUNDIAL en Francia, un protestante reformado suizo llamado Roger Louis Schütz-Marsauche empezó a alcanzar a la gente sufriente, especialmente a los refugios de la guerra. A través de sus esfuerzos, nació la comunidad Taizé, ubicada en Taizé, Burgundía, Francia. Deseando proveer un ambiente de amor, aceptación, y unidad donde la “reconciliación” podría ocurrir entre los de diferentes creencias y religiones, el “hermano Roger” fundó lo que ha llegado a reconocerse internacionalmente como una hermandad monástica ecuménica, donde cien mil personas, mayormente jóvenes, llegan a visitar cada año. Además, cultos de adoración Taizé toman lugar en muchas iglesias por todo el mundo occidental. A la vez que nadie puede cuestionar el sincero deseo del hermano Roger y los “hermanos Taizé” de ayudar a otros, esta pasión pasó por encima del deseo de guardar el discernimiento bíblico; y no protegieron ni alzaron el mensaje del evangelio de un camino angosto a la verdad: que la salvación viene solamente por medio de una Persona, y no que todos los caminos lleguen a Dios. Este libro examina Taizé, la comunidad y su forma de adoración, a través del filtro de las Escrituras.
