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.
