Leadership Lessons from Captain Phillips:

Captain Richard Phillips is the real-life inspiration for the movie Captain Phillips, starring Tom Hanks and author of A Captain’s Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALS, and Dangerous Days at Sea. For five days in April 2009, the world was glued to their TV screens as Captain Richard Phillips of the MV Maersk Alabama, became the center of an extraordinary international drama when he was captured by Somali pirates who hijacked his ship, the first hijacking of a U.S. ship in more than 200 years.
