In this hard-hitting episode of Like a Man, we go behind the scenes with veteran SWAT commander and OpTempo Training's Matt Harden to talk about what it really takes to lead when lives are on the line. From tactical training to decision-making in chaotic moments, we explore how elite teams operate under extreme pressure — and what kind of leadership holds it all together.

We dig into how SWAT teams prepare for the worst-case scenario, what separates a good leader from a great one when time is measured in seconds, and how the same principles used in high-stress missions can be applied to your life, career, and family.

This isn’t Hollywood — it’s raw, real-world leadership forged in the fire. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to stay calm under pressure, lead when the stakes are highest, or build trust in a team where hesitation can cost lives, this is your episode.
