A great book that exemplifies this technique is "It's Your Ship: Management Techniques from the Best Damn Ship in the Navy." This book details how a captain's positive, empowering, and somewhat unorthodox management techniques took an Arleigh Burke destroyer that ranked last in its class to being the highest-ranked ship in its class.

Interesting, thanks for the recommendation. Is it written as a long-form case study? Or more of a memoir?

I'd call the book's format more of a memoir vs a case study.
