Description

Some people post quotes. Bobby Eckert lives them.


In Part 2 of this no-holds-barred conversation, Captain Bobby Eckert gets brutally honest about leadership, firehouse culture, and the broken state of firefighter training. From how he sleeps better at the station than at home, to why he’s done playing nice with the fire service status quo - this one punches straight through the noise and hits the heart of what it means to lead.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Why good officers don’t hover - and how Bobby lets his crew grow on their own
  • The surprising reason he sleeps better at the firehouse than anywhere else
  • The massive failure in entry-level firefighter training - and what needs to change
  • How to lead with humility, consistency, and grit
  • What happens when you stand up to the fire service “establishment” - and don’t back down


If you’re a firefighter who’s tired of the same old politics and wants to lead with realness, this one’s for you.
