Danelle Barrett is a retired Rear Admiral in the US Navy and author of “Rock the Boat: Embrace Change, Encourage Innovation and Be a Successful Leader.”
Danielle has served her country from tours in Iraq to the disaster relief effort in Haiti. She has used multiple high stakes situations to think about her leadership in an ever changing environment. Danelle discusses the need to make speedy decisions with only a fraction of the available information, how she has always focused on what she can fix as opposed to those elements beyond her control. We also talk about how she has had to take off the shackles of what she thought she knew and challenge all of her assumptions whilst embracing the diversity of thought around her and creating a culture where truth to power was always allowed and encouraged.Â
