Beyond the Sea

Leading with Love from the Nuclear Navy to the White House and Healthcare

By: Navy Bob Roncska DBA

Narrated by: Kent Lutt

Are you aspiring to create a legendary culture, become an exceptional leader, and lead a fulfilling life?

In his debut book, Beyond the Sea, Robert Roncska offers insights into the transformation of positive cultures that turned sour and negative cultures that became renowned.

When Roncska assumed command of the USSTexas, the ship ranked at the bottom of its squadron and faced recurring safety issues. Through innovative strategies, he successfully transformed the culture, propelling his submarine's ranking and retention from last place to first place in the Pacific Fleet within a remarkable two-year period. Starting with a loving and people-centric approach, Roncska laid the groundwork of trust, standards, and purpose.

In this book, he presents a roadmap that leaders can adapt to any industry, empowering listeners to create high-quality relationships and elevate their organization's performance beyond expectations.
