Holding Fast in Heavy Seas: Leadership for Turbulent Times
Year: 2026 Language: English Author: Tim Gallaudet Genre: Memoir Publisher: Koehler Books ISBN: 9798888247969 Format: ePUB Quality: eBook Pages count: 320 Description: After serving for three decades as an oceanographer in the US Navy, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet was appointed to lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) during the turbulent times of the first Trump administration. NOAA is America's top ocean, weather, climate, and environmental agency, and to say that many federal employees were less than thrilled when Trump took office would be an understatement. Finding himself caught up in the "Sharpiegate" incident and other frustrating events caused Gallaudet to wonder if remaining in office was worth the effort, but his decision to hold fast and lead with empathy and humility kept NOAA on an even keel despite the often stormy environment. He applied the lessons from his life and military service to provide positive servant leadership to NOAA, defying the odds and boosting morale and employee satisfaction to record levels. Drawing from both career accomplishment and personal tragedy, Gallaudet developed and applied a signature leadership approach to connect with employees at every level, making them feel valued and respected. Holding Fast in Heavy Seas provides an inspiring playbook for people of any calling who aspire to improve in their ability to positively influence others. Additional info: About the Author: Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, PhD, US Navy (Ret.) served for thirty-two years as an oceanographer on active duty before taking the helm of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and serving as the undersecretary of commerce during the first Trump administration. He is currently the CEO of Ocean STL Consulting as well as the host of The American Blue Economy podcast on the American Shoreline Network. He is a regular contributor to The Hill, RealClearDefense, RealClearScience, and the US Naval Institute Proceedings, and is a graduate of the United States Naval Academy, with masters and doctoral degrees from Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Tim enjoys swimming, surfing, and scuba diving with his wife and three daughters.
