David Sutcliffe is a fellow Afghan war vet, banker and Director of Communications of the Treble Victor Group Ottawa chapter.

We chatted about our similar experiences having both deployed to Afghanistan and then working in the civilian world shortly after and how programs like the Veterans' Transition Network (VTN), Prince's Operation Entrepreneur (POE) and the Treble Victor Group (3V) have all had positive impact on our lives.

I freakin' loved recording this episode with Jonny Collins. His passion and dedication to mens' health is outstanding. As a British, Afghan War veteran and accomplished personal trainer, Jonny has carved himself out a niche with men to regain their fire. 

Focusing on driving up testosterone levels is crucial to ensuring his clients' success but also fixing people's mindset and habits make his program a winning combo. 

Becoming a dangerous man is something that has been at the top of my mind for awhile and for Jonny as well. Touching on the philosophical, we discuss the works of Jordan Peterson and how being dangerous doesn't mean being reckless and an asshole but understanding oneself as being immensely powerful and destructive if need be and to be able to control that, which is at the heart of being dangerous.

This is a mini episode I recorded for the Prince's Operation Entrepreneur (POE). 

POE is an awesome organization that gives CAF veterans, or serving members that are about to retire, free business training in order to help them on their entrepreneurship journey. I'm proud to be a graduate of the program and I highly encourage any CAF veteran that is interested in starting their own business to apply for a spot.

Leadership - Every organization wants the best leaders doesn’t it? But how do most go about ensuring this is the case?

I know, after 15 years in the CF as a SNR NCO and junior officer, that leaders need to to be trained and mentored continuously. I would argue that the CF produces Canada’s best leaders just based on the sheer volume of training and practice each one of us gets.

This podcast is a recording of a talk I did at the annual Dominos Pizza Canada Rally where I discussed my experience as a leader in the CF and how my lessons learned could help young leaders improve their franchises.
