Beschreibung

In Superyacht Captain, a professional at the zenith of the world's most lavish and exclusive industry gives a rare insight into a career that is entertaining, instructive and at times daunting in its scale.

The tale of an ordinary boy whose career takes him on a most extraordinary journey, this book begins with Brendan messing about in boats in a sleepy coastal Australian town, and ends with him becoming one of the most successful and respected superyacht captains in the World - the consummate 'Billionaire's Captain'. Spanning two decades and circling the globe, his story intimately draws readers into the real world of superyachts, their crew and their owners. It is Brendan's love letter to an industry he respects and holds so dear to his heart.

It's the story of stepping out and embracing uncertainty - failing, learning and repeating - weaving in in the lessons he's learned as he's progressed from deck hand to captain, Brendan's insights are valuable for anyone leading teams with demanding objectives. Surprisingly humble and self aware, in a world of glitter and extravagance you can see why he's trusted. All of this is told against a backdrop of seemingly impossible glamour at the most extravagant edge of the global wealth spectrum, with plenty of entertaining stories of the superyacht lifestyle.

A brilliant read for all, for the superyacht fans, as well as anyone interested in leadership and management techniques from someone at the top of their game, working for those who define the rules of the game.

Prologue

PART 1: My journey: before the captain was the boy
You can have the shoes
What's 'porn' in Russian?
There is no second place
To lead to excel
The tuck and tape
How much for the flag?
Greed is good

PART 2: Best of the best
Learning the 'why'
It's not about the boat
Wind of change
Master under God
Run, Forrest, run
Advancing my journey
Will it be rough tonight?
Making better decisions
A defining moment
A personal board of directors
Is that the Prince?
I thought he was taller
Parties and paparazzi
Everything has a purpose
Fantasy staff game
Waitlessness
The illusion of normalcy
Saint-Tropez sunset
Bubbles and troubles
Driving Miss Daisy
Ego is the enemy
Is that Santa?
The helicopter view
When perfect is not good enough

Time to say goodbye
