Interviews are excellent. Starts off with senior leader reading but it’s so much more than that. These short and insightful episodes are packed with gems about leadership and life. A perfect commute or exercise pod to get some diverse knowledge.
Keep up the great work!
I feel like I’ve become a better officer listening to the podcast. My favorite part is hearing what everyone’s reading. I wish the show notes had what each person recommended though.
I really like this podcast. Great interviews and the guests are given space to speak. Its not all about the interviewer. I started reading fiction again. I would politely suggest they include the book names recommended by guests in the show notes.
Very good episode!
The episode with SMMC was really good... Looking forward to future episodes.
OT! OF!
I don’t always agree with what the guests may say but the conversations are incredibly thought provoking and provide a variety of viewpoints that you may not have thought of before. The hosts do a great job moderating. Highly recommend!
