What does it take to lead with confidence when the world keeps shifting and the path forward isn't clear? In this episode of The Covert Code Podcast, I sit down with Dave Chauhan—author of "Captain, Set Sail," founder of The Nautical Leadership Model™, and co-founder of Purple Spark Advisory. Discover how Dave helps leaders navigate change with clarity, courage, and purpose, using maritime principles to guide modern leadership challenges. Learn why uncertainty doesn't have to mean paralysis, how to set a clear course when the waters are choppy, and why purpose-driven leadership is the compass that keeps organizations on track through turbulent times. Whether you're steering a startup, managing a team through transformation, or simply seeking to lead more confidently in unpredictable environments, Dave's nautical approach to leadership will provide the navigation tools you need to chart your course with conviction.
