What are the skills necessary for effective leadership? How can we learn to lead toward a better tomorrow? For six decades, the captains of Star Trek have demonstrated the potential for enlightened leaders to leverage reason and compassion in the service of others. Grounded in science yet focused on practical application, this work uses case studies from more than 40 episodes and films to explore how Captains Archer, Burnham, Pike, Kirk, Picard, Sisko, and Janeway relied upon the basic leadership skills of communication, patience, and relationship to navigate the most challenging of events.

Written for both professionals and curious readers alike, this work navigates how leaders can leverage reason and compassion to create organizational cultures in which everyone has a place at the table. Whether you are a professional or a student of business, academics, schools or government, Star Trek is more relevant than ever before to the leaders of today to boldly go.

Industry Reviews

"This book treats the legendary Captains of Star Trek, who are clearly exemplars of leadership in different styles and in varying contexts, as examples that students of leadership should heed-and what powerful lessons there are to learn. The selection of moments and the episodes or films in which they can be found is incredible-a true testament to how detailed the book is. There is some essential Star Trek viewing in the selections, and some lesser known moments brought to life in a new research context."-Chris Nunn, assistant professor of film, University of Birmingham
