'great leaders don't tell you what to do, they show you how it's done.'

The ego to lead matched with the humility to learn. Not a common pairing.

Leadership qualities are rare. Every leader thinks that they have these qualities, but only a few leaders actually do. A leader must not only be able keep the team on track and push them towards completing a common goal; they must also be also be able to inspire their team members.

I am currently the group leader in my college Project Management Class. The other day one of my team members told me how great of a leader that I was and how I inspired him to improve and grow as a student. I have to say that it made me get choked up and teary eyes once I was alone. I have never had a more rewarding and satisfying experience in my time at college. Having my team members become excited to show me their work so they can gain my approval and acceptance gives me the most amazing feeling. They not only accept my praise, but they also accept and learn from my criticism. Seeing the team member who came to me personally grow into the successful student that he is today is priceless, I wouldn't trade it for the anything in the world.

I really needed to hear that bit about not befriending the men you lead, and how if you do it leads to mutiny. Good talk!

Leadership is a term that is oftentimes viewed in high regard, and rightfully so. Being associated with the title of a “leader” means that you have either worked extremely hard, been very reliable, been able to handle and overcome challenges, or all of the above. Despite the fact that being a “leader” is a great accomplishment, I believe that it is not for everyone. Being a leader means that a certain level of influence and power comes with it, and unless that power and influence is used for good, it can cause a lot of harm and pain to the individuals who have to follow the leader. For example, I have grown up in a very competitive atmosphere, as I have played highly competitive travel soccer in one of the most talented leagues in the country. With my experiences over the years with a variety of coaches, I have played for and been led by some very influential, and overall great, coaches. With this being said, I believe that they were able to use their leadership position to change the lives of so many young girls who were aspiring to play at the collegiate level. Now on the other end of the spectrum, I have played under some very poor leaders and coaches who have nearly made me lose my love for the game. These coaches all had one thing in common, and that was that they decided to use their leadership position to put others down and to reinforce the belief that they were superior to everyone else. In doing this, they ultimately took a great opportunity to make a positive difference as a leader and turned it into a chance to show their power and to put themselves on a pedestal. Like I mentioned before, leadership is a term that a majority of people wish to attain; However, being a leader is not for everyone.

Competence is brilliance in the basics.

Going beyond in terms of performance while adhering to the basic principles is what separates elite from the mediocre.

A hard lesson I learned.

the problem is that most ppl don't care to think like this more. they want their lives to always be closer to more of "it's my way or the highway" mentality cuz it makes them feel more in control of themselves and surroundings. helps them feel more secure with their lives, how they choose to do things, with the way they think/believe, not having to be more open minded towards too much.

A good leader knows how to listen to those with experience and make appropriate decisions based upon them. A good leader will also have a greater vision and big plan in mind as they implement their strategy. A good leader will have contingency plans to use as back ups and alternative methods to accomplish all of their goals.

Throughout this segment I was often reminded of the quote attributed to George S. Patton about not telling people how to do things, but to tell them what needs to be done. The football coach shouldn't be telling a linebacker how to block. At the same time, the player has to know exactly what the play and the coach intends to accomplish so that he knows what has to be done and can make the decision on the field. Powerful mentality to keep with you in life.

You couldn’t be more spot on! I hope to hell that people listening, can actually hear what is being said. I’m in the middle of this exact narrative on a daily basis in the business world, and what you’re saying couldn’t be more accurate. I’ve seen the results to what you’re saying first hand. Coaching Leadership Style!! Great interview!

3:36, 3:52
Your family is a reflection of you
The only way you can have the moral authority to set a standard is to be the example of that standard

6:43 don’t have to always be loved, have to be willing to be (not passive/avoidant/agreeable) and be the stick in the mud when it’s necessary to get things done.

7:06 Have the humility to take input/ideas from the team and not always have your way, it’s your job to make the final decision which is made up of the best inputs/ideas from the team and execute/implement on the ideas (and give credit)

12:17 this is the best/proven way to do it, to maximize the potential of your team to make progress toward a clear goal




This passive “someone will step up, it’s a group im not the leader, no leader” bs is not working.
There is no one that is stepping up so it’s your responsibility to step up.
Think of it as practice for your business and for your future family household.

Gonna have to start with by ruling with an iron fist because everyone has to initially be whipped into shape like bootcamp before work can begin.
It’s to set the standard of what’s expected before the work can begin.
Gonna have to be the ultimate example to follow, set the path and the standard and make it clear what it is by saying/explaining it.
Define the goal/purpose/mission and explain clearly the inputs/actions that need to be accomplished to achieve it.

Jocko, have you seen you tube documentary "500 Miles"? It's about US veterans and mustangs. I'm a huge civilian fan and I saw this documentary and thought that you need to know about this program. My deepest gratitude for what you and Echo do. Shine on! Deepest Respect from Colorado Springs, ~Michelle
