'''Louis David Marquet,''' born in 1959, is a retired Captain of the [[US Navy]] and former submarine officer. Throughout his career, he has been recognized as a leader who has made significant contributions to the US Navy. He is known for his leadership style. Marquet's background in the Navy has given him a unique perspective on leadership and management, which he has used to help organizations improve their performance. |
|||
== Early life and education == |
|||
Louis David Marquet was born in 1959 and grew up in [[Concord, Massachusetts]]. He attended [[Concord Carlisle High School]], where he was an active member of the school's sports teams. After graduating from high school, Marquet attended the [[US Naval Academy]] in [[Annapolis]], [[Maryland]]. He graduated from the Academy in 1981 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering. |
|||
== Military career == |
|||
Marquet's military career began in 1981 when he was commissioned as an Ensign in the US Navy. After completing submarine school, he was assigned to the [[USS Sunfish (SSN-649)]] as a division officer, then [[USS Will Rogers (SSBN-659)]] as Engineer. He earned a masters degree in International Affairs at the Naval Post Graduate School and completed the [[Russian language]] course at the Defense Language Institute. |
|||
He quickly rose through the ranks, serving on several different submarines throughout his career. He served as Executive Officer on the [[USS Hawkbill (SSN-666)]], and as Commanding Officer on the [[USS Santa Fe (SSN-763)]]. |
|||
Marquet's most significant accomplishment during his military career was his time as Commanding Officer on the USS Santa Fe. When he took command of the Santa Fe, it was considered one of the worst-performing submarines in the US Navy. The ship had a reputation for low performance, low morale, and high turnover rates among the crew. |
|||
Marquet recognized that the traditional leadership style in the Navy was not working on the Santa Fe. Instead of giving orders and micromanaging his crew, he decided to empower them to make their own decisions. He implemented a leadership philosophy he called "intent-based leadership", which emphasized giving his crew the tools they needed to make decisions on their own. |
|||
Marquet's leadership style had a significant impact on the Santa Fe's performance. Within a year of taking command, the submarine was recognized as the best-performing submarine in the Navy. The Santa Fe was awarded the [[Battle Effectiveness Award]], which is given to the most effective ship or submarine in its class, and the Arleigh Burke Award for the most improved unit in the fleet. |
|||
He retired from the Navy in 2009, after serving for 28 years. |
|||
== Post-Military career == |
|||
After retiring from the Navy, Marquet began to share his leadership philosophy with organizations outside of the military. He is co-counder founder of the consulting firm, Intent-Based Leadership International. The company's mission is to help organizations develop better leaders by teaching them Marquet's intent-based leadership philosophy. |
|||
Marquet's leadership philosophy is based on the idea that leaders should give their subordinates intent, not instructions, and the tools and information they need to make decisions on their own. He believes that when leaders empower their subordinates, they create a more engaged and effective workforce. |
|||
Marquet has worked with a variety of organizations, including Fortune 500 companies, non-profits, and government agencies. He has also written several books on leadership, including ''Turn the Ship Around!: A True Story of Turning Followers into Leaders.'' and ''Leadership is Language.'' |
|||
== Personal life == |
|||
Marquet is married and has three children. He currently resides in Florida, where he continues to work as a consultant and speaker. |
|||
Since then he has worked as a leadership expert<ref>{{cite web |last1=Marquet |first1=David |title=6 Myths About Empowering Employees |url=https://hbr.org/2015/05/6-myths-about-empowering-employees |website=Harvard Business Review|date=27 May 2015 |accessdate=23 September 2020}}<br>- {{cite web |title=Council Post: 12 Way Managers Can Establish A Trust Relationship with Employees |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbescoachescouncil/2017/04/28/12-ways-managers-can-establish-a-trusting-relationship-with-employees/ |website=Forbes|date=28 April 2017 |accessdate=23 September 2020}}<br>- {{cite web |last1=Morgan |first1=Jacob |title=Unconventional Leadership Lessons from a nuclear submarine captain |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/jacobmorgan/2015/01/29/unconventional-leadership-lessons-from-a-nuclear-submarine-captain/ |website=Forbes|date=29 January 2015 |accessdate=23 September 2020}}</ref> and speaks to audiences globally<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.crisp.se/kurser/intent-based-leadership-david-marquet-february-20-2020|title= Intent based leadership, February 20 2020|accessdate=4 October 2021}}</ref> about creating workplaces where people are healthier and happier because they have more control over their work.
