      <title>Assertiveness: Can a woman also be assertive and not misjudged as aggressive?</title>

I share my perspective on the notion as I chat with Organizational psychologist Dr. Karen Walker, retired Marine Corps LtCOL and Founder of KW Productions, a behavioral assessments firm,

      <title>Authenticity: A leader's test of character and caliber</title>
      <description>Authentic leadership is a test of how genuinely one leads, and whether one is made of sterner stuff. How does one lead and earn credibility with peers, team members, clients or customers? I discuss authenticity with former U.S. Army Captain turned entrepreneur, CEO of V2M2 Group, Inc, Franklin Rivera.
I distinguish transparency from authenticity, and he shares insights of the risks he took to stay authentic, and the life tenets that he acquired as a young cadet that has helped make him the leader he is today. Listen attentively and stay authentic!

      <title>Season Recap: Qualities and Attributes of Seasoned Leaders</title>
      <description>This recap of over 300 years of combined leadership perspectives and experiences from the guests is a phenomenal opportunity to reflect on the various qualities and attributes of an organizational leader. It provides highlights of leadership notions from former military leaders, some with about thirty years of experience in leading thousands of men and women into combat in support of our nation's call.
These leaders are now successful entrepreneurs in the private sector. I call attention to them for a moment of reflection on how we need to take the temperature on our own leadership to 'strike when the iron is hot' by gleaning any tenets or lessons from their perspectives so that we can become better leadership influencers in our respective spheres.
Join me in this highlight of guests, before I invite you to revisit any episodes you may have missed or desire to learn more.

      <title>Courage: What distinguishes the good from the great leaders</title>
      <description>Courage, as you may have heard is not the absence of fear but rather the presence of mind in a leader to say no when it matters. I share my perspective on the notion, and we hear from CAPT (Ret) Rick Hoffman, CEO of Orion Solutions, LLC, a Defense contracting company, and a former United States Cruiser warship commanding officer, the U.S. Navy technical advisor to the movie Battleship, in which he played a role as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He shares his insights into the role courage plays in leading men into harm's way six months after the USS COLE bombing in Yemen, and how that same courage can be employed in leading a multi-million dollar corporate organization he runs. Join us to learn how this leadership first principle, can help you lead with purpose.
