In this episode, I host Duane Bushey, the seventh Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy. We discuss various topics related to leadership and Duane's experiences in the Navy. Duane shares stories from his early days in the Navy, including humorous anecdotes and encounters with different leadership styles, his post-retirement career and his commitment to mentorship and leadership, defense of the initiation process, the selection process for MCPON, and changes the Navy has made that he likes and dislikes.
