Customer Reviews
Excellent presentations
Thank you for the bounty of information. Well communicated (excellent broadcasters) discussing a wide array of topics.
Please remove second half of the episode
The stories are ok until they are over and the next part begins.
Please fix!!
After every episode finishes it begins the lessons learned leadership podcast with a interview with the CEO of Navy Fed Credit Union. Why?! Love this podcast but it is painful to listen to that introduction every single time after the podcast end.
