After 33 years as an Army officer, Vinny Boles is getting paid to travel the globe to speak on topics he loves- leadership and supply chain.

This 2-star General shed some light on how to lead in a crisis (which applies to any profession) and how do you take bad news.  The later is the most critical leadership skill.

I asked him how to keep morale up when your company is downsizing.  He has interesting advice.  A portion of that was that it’s critical to show empathy.

Other topics:

Management vs leadership:  What’s the difference?  Vinny elaborates.

Millennials: Why they are the 21st century’s greatest generation.

I had a great time meeting this warrior and got solid advice that’s applicable to anyone.

Learn more about Vinny and purchase his book “4-3-2-1 Leadership” from his website.

Also mentioned in this episode is Thad’s recent 2-day Scoped Rifle Class with Kyle Defoor.
