In his book Ahoy Mates!, Captain Bob takes his twenty-first century readers back in time to experience organizational leadership as practiced on the wooden decks of pirate ships.

Captain Bob's readers witness new pirates developing shared visions and purposes, draft pirate strategies and witness these strategies being implemented. They learn how to energize pirates to perform to their full potential. Finally, they face harrowing moments when their very lives depend upon the outcome of their own innovative thinking abilities.

"Bob Garrow's Ahoy Mates provides a fun-filled escapade into the best parts of the pirate world to demonstrate leadership secrets that enabled rag-tag groups of pirates to succeed. Bob's fresh approach helps readers see key leadership ideas in new ways, and provides winning strategies to take these ideas home."
