Customer Reviews
love
I work in an industry that is completely opposite of military culture and I find these lessons relevant and applicable.
Great Talks
I have the pleasure of knowing Paul from his time in the Navy to today. I recommend listening to any of these podcasts, reading his writings, or just sharing a cup of coffee with him. Learn something new today on leadership, and go lead like you want to be led!
Zack Pryor
Must listen for leaders!
Excellent content from from the person who literally wrong the book on being a Chief Petty Officer in the USN.
