Mike joined ALL MARINE RADIO to talk his career and leadership inside and outside of the military. His comments about moral courage being the backbone of any leader and the importance of “character” in leadership development are important lessons for any military or civilian leader. Mike also discusses how “The Dale Carnegie Course” impacted him as a leader in his 50’s and the importance of being a lifelong learner.
An impressive humble leader with sage comments for all who aspire to be better leaders, his comments about a leader’s role in applying “rules of engagement”during contingency operations are especially pointed.
