    From Navy to Project Management: Kevin Pannell on The Fundamentals of Leadership and Balance | The Dev is in the Details #15

    ► What does it really mean to lead without losing yourself?  In this episode, Kevin Pannell – Navy veteran, emergency responder, and healthcare IT leader – takes us from the intensive care units of a hospital ship to high-pressure project rooms in healthcare. Drawing on his military training and years in emergency management, we discuss how triage principles, clear objectives, and decisive communication can transform both crisis response and project delivery. We explore his Stability Equation framework built on 7 life pillars: ownership,  mindfulness, movement, boundaries, connection, sleep, and faith; and how they anchor leaders facing chaos, burnout, or overwhelming responsibility. Kevin shares personal stories of setbacks, resilience, and practical tools like breathing techniques, jiu-jitsu, and redefining what “done” really means. This conversation is about more than leadership: it’s about finding clarity, balance, and strength when everything around you is uncertain.  ► Our guest 🌟 Kevin Pannell 👉 https://www.linkedin.com/in/pannellkg/   Healthcare IT Leader, Navy Veteran, and the author of The Stability Equation: 7 Pillars for a More Balanced Life, and host of the People, Process, and Progress podcast.  👉 https://linktr.ee/peopleprocessprogress  ► In today’s episode: How Kevin’s previous experience in the U.S. Navy helps him navigate complex IT and healthcare projects How to find the right balance in leadership and lifeThe 7 pillars for successful projects and life, and how to incorporate them Approaching challenges and project roadblocksPractical advice on moving forward when you feel stuck or overwhelmed ► Decoding the timeline: 00:00:00 - Leveraging Lessons in Leadership from The U.S. Navy to Project Management 00:04:20 - The Ladder to Building Experience and Expertise   00:07:03 - The Comparison Between IT Projects and Military Structures 00:10:01 - Finding Stability Through Hard Times and an Approach to Find Balance in Life 00:13:04 - The 7 Pillars for Successful Projects 00:19:48 - Communication Challenges in Projects and Standardization Tips 00:28:49 - Incorporating The 7 Pillars for Balanced Life in Practice 00:32:15 - Owning Mind, Body, and Spirit Philosophy in Leadership  00:35:52 - Picking Your Own Tool Set for Handling Stress  00:40:40 - The Impact of The Movement and Exercises on Your Mind   00:42:57 - How to Apply The Life Pillars Principles for High-Stress Roles 00:48:30 - The Direct Link Between The Pillars for Life and Projects 00:51:16 - How to Balance Projects, Deliverables, and Team Wellbeing Without Cutting Corners 00:53:50 - The First Steps to Start Moving Forward ► Materials and information mentioned in the episode:  Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win by Jocko Willink and Leif BabinGuided Wim Hof Method BreathingWhy Simon Sinek (still) wants you to find your why | Masters of Scale Loren Reunion’s Yoga Nidra routines | Spotify*** The Dev is in the Details is a podcast where we talk about technology, business and their impacts on the world around us.
