- Episode 1: Persistence and Grit: Tom Deierlein CEO of Thundercat Technology
He got a second chance at West Point. It took him three tries to get through the US Army’s Ranger School. He was shot by an enemy sniper in Iraq and some doctors never thought he’d walk again. Today, Tom Deierlein is a married father of three, he’s leads a charity that helps other veterans in need, and he’s the co-founder and CEO of a company called Thundercat Technology. Tom joins us for the inaugural episode of Boots about Business to talk about things he learned in uniform – leadership, flexibility and grit – and how they helped him in business. Show notes online at www.bootsaboutbusiness.com.

About Boots About Business
From the publisher's feed
Support for our military veterans has never been higher than it is today. Many businesses have an interest in employing veterans, but they don’t know how to connect, and they don’t really understand…
the skills veterans can bring to their business. Something similar can be said about veterans in transition and their understanding of the business world. Hi, I’m Frank Strong, I’m a veteran, I’ve worked in businesses of all sizes, small-, medium and large, today I’m a business owner and now, I’m hosting a podcast called “Boots about Business.” We interview business leaders, executives and entrepreneurs that all started their careers wearing boots in service of the US armed forces. This podcast will be equal parts about sharing great stories, helping veterans, helping businesses and ultimately helping them both understand each other. The show is available wherever you get your podcasts. Keep an eye on the show’s website for show notes and links resources discussed on the show.
