The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Chester Nimitz Assumes Command of the Pacific Fleet-- Part 2

However, Chester Nimitz proved to be just the man for the job, the perfect CEO in troubled and perilous times.

**  He was flexible.  The battleships were out under his command and aircraft carriers in.  he deployed them ably.

**  He got the Navy moving again immediately, sending the aircraft carrier Enterprise out against the Japanese.

**  He used his head and trusted his instincts.

**  He took calculated risks.

**  He trusted his people.

These are traits all CEOs should strive to achieve.
