CRIMSON TIDE'S CAPTAIN RAMSEY: A LESSON IN TOXIC LEADERSHIP - War Room - U.S. Army War College

War Room has asked the question before "What's the best movie to teach leadership?" Everyone has their favorite. Todd Moulton is back with an outstanding example in Crimson Tide. Released in 1995, the movie pits a submarine commander, CAPT Ramsey against his executive officer, LCDR Hunter, in a tense standoff over the launch of the ship's nuclear weapons. It's a fast-paced thriller that Todd holds up as a stellar example of toxic leadership. The sub commander, played by Gene Hackman, demonstrates an inability to adapt to changing situations, failing to apply critical thinking and an over-reliance on intuition. All of this combined creates a toxic environment that comes to a head at the worst time and nearly starts a nuclear war. Sadly supported by real world headlines of relieved leaders that demonstrate some of CAPT Ramsey's worst leadership traits, Crimson Tide is a fantastic study of what not to do.
