The idea of ANCHORS AWAY – “Lift up your Anchors and Sail†is to install key truths to the core of the serious professional. These key ideas will serve to enhance even the most seasoned professional to advance to their greatest potentials. The “Anchors†metaphor is used to both keep a ship (your organization) from moving when you don't want it to, and from knowing how to unhook or lift your anchors when you intend to move ahead. If the anchors remain in the water they create an unhealthy drag and can be dangerous. Some “Anchors†can be mindsets that keep you stuck, a fixed idea that has not been challenged or revisited. Other “Anchors†can be positioned and non-negotiable to serve to ensure positioning and safety.

In it, readers get: A primer on the different types of sailboats and tips for buying or renting. Detailed descriptions of the parts and controls of a sailboat. The roles and jobs of sailor and crew. How to get the boat into the water (if it isn't already). The mechanics of sailing. Departing, anchoring, and docking. Handling, navigating, and weather. Sailing safety and emergency preparedness. The rules of the sailing road. Backup plans: engines and oars. Storing, hauling, and maintaining a sailboat.
