#168: How Mission-Driven Leadership Achieve Faster Growth
Description
Episode Summary
We are entering a new era of warfare that is more complex than ever before. It requires mission-driven leadership to unify teams on a singular mission, no matter how diverse or dispersed they are.
Jon Rennie, a business owner, author, and former naval officer joins us in today's episode. Jon's former submariner experience brings in unheard-of leadership principles and found the basic underlying principles for success at sea can lead to high-performing teams on land.
Jon's mission-driven leadership leads others to accomplish the mission by relying entirely on the actions of his fellow employees. He fundamentally believes mission-driven leadership means that there is shared responsibility as well as shared vulnerability. Hence, regardless of rank or experience, every employee is vitally important.
Tune in 'til the very end and learn how you can create an environment where all of your team members can build on the strengths of each member and how you can get your team working toward the same goal!
