Navy Seals Selection

Find the weak heart and eliminate from ever becoming a Navy Seal

Lead in an environment of constant stress, chaos, failure and hardships

“Basic SEAL training is six months of long torturous runs in the soft sand, midnight swims in the cold water off San Diego, obstacles courses, unending calisthenics, days without sleep and always being cold, wet and miserable.

It is six months of being constantly harassed by professionally trained warriors who seek to find the weak of mind and body and eliminate them from ever becoming a Navy SEAL.

But, the training also seeks to find those students who can lead in an environment of constant stress, chaos, failure and hardships.”

“Make your Bed” every morning

Today, we found that the Bed for operations is the accuracy of Platform ops interfaces. Like Bed for Navy Seals, it is seen by most of the teammates each morning and sets attitude to their other tasks from a DB or a code architecture to communications with clients. How they chose the structure, size, color of fonts, blocks, shortcuts are small vector that gravitates us constantly.

Know what is your “Bed”

Which small daily task sets the day for all of us? Is it Stories, Standups, your OKR report?

Find the weak heart and eliminate from ever becoming a Navy Seal.

Today, I interviewed another cancer, which was proud to tell that he is working only 15% of his day for Yandex which he joined 6 months ago. He was proud to tell that the Sovok deserves to be cheated and teammates are ok to have him as a bar lower.
