The author reflects on his leadership experiences as a boarding party officer in HMAS Newcastle in 2003 and operations officer in HMAS Stuart in 2008. The ships provided support for Operation CATALYST to the Middle East area of operations. The role played by these experiences in molding the author's command and leadership is noted. These experiences serve bases for the author to draw examples of an Australian approach to operations and the importance of personal communication.
