Today, I’m joined by Shay Brickhouse, and we're talking about becoming a Leader Worth Following. Shay heads up Landscaping Unlimited, a complete landscaping and hardscaping company based in Eastern NC. He took over this business in 2016 and has been leading in the trenches ever since. A good friend of mine, a former Navy veteran, worked for Shay and called him the best leader he has ever worked for (including his time in the service). I don’t hear that often, so I immediately contacted Shay to get him on the show to learn from his leadership journey and how he became a leader worth following.

Today, Tom Burbage and Fred Stuvek, both returning guests to the show, will join me to discuss politics and the military. Tom is the President of the Calvert Task Group. He retired from Lockheed Martin Corporation in 2013, serving as the president of the Lockheed Martin Aeronautical Systems Company and the executive vice president/GM for the USAF F-22 Raptor and F-35 programs. Tom was a Naval Aviator, where he accumulated more than 3,000 hours in 38 different types of military aircraft and retired as a US Navy Captain in 1994. Fred has also achieved extraordinary success in diverse realms. He graduated from the Naval Academy, lettering three years as quarterback. After military service, he transitioned to business, holding senior leadership positions in private/ public companies. He is an accomplished author, and his most recent book, “The Experience of Leadership,” is a high-water mark in leadership assessment by providing practical, actionable, and realistic insights into the leadership process. Fred’s leadership and accomplishments have given him a distinct perspective and a results-oriented mindset. Tom and Fred are coauthors of a brand new book called Don’t Give Up the Ship: Woke Politics Are Endangering Our Military and Our Nation. In this book, seventeen former military officers, mostly U.S. Naval Academy graduates, apply their insights shaped by combat, command, and senior leadership experience to illuminate the divisive threat to our military. This book warns how politics are eroding the core Navy values and its readiness to defend the nation. I’m honored to have Tom and Fred back on the show to discuss politics and the military.
