In this powerful follow-up conversation, I sit down once again with former Navy SEAL commander Rich Diviney to discuss his latest book, Masters of Uncertainty.

Drawing on over two decades of elite military experience, Rich shares practical strategies for navigating chaos, finding certainty in uncertainty, and shifting our internal horizon so we can better manage stress and pressure in high-stakes environments.

Rich has a rare ability to translate the hard-earned lessons from the SEAL Teams into tools that are immediately relevant for leaders, performers, and anyone looking to stay calm and in control when the pressure is on.

This episode dives into how we can build the internal capacity to thrive amid uncertainty—and lead with clarity when it matters most.

Ross’s journey is a testament to achieving excellence without sacrificing vitality, happiness, or health. As the leader of a successful acquisition company, he transforms businesses to scale six and seven figures. He’s also the author of two books and has climbed three of the world’s highest peaks—demonstrating a consistent ability to perform at a high level.

Justin Featherstone is a former military officer, leadership consultant and expedition leader.

His last posting in the military was as the principle leadership staff officer at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. He was also awarded the Military Cross for his actions in Iraq.

Following his career in the military Justin has embraked on many pursuits and adventures, which have included living with indigenous tribes as well as extreme mountaineering and white water kayaking expeditions.

I describe Justin in this conversation as a 'beautiful mind', which may sound strange when describing an ex military officer. His message for leaders though is a strong one, as he advocates kindness and compassion as prerequisites for cultures that foster effective organisational performance. 

Justin's deep understanding and deep experience of leading and performing in complex and challenging environments provides great insights and raises challenging questions for us all...
