Episode 9: I have the Conn: The Stillness Behind Command with Bob Alpigini

Update: 2025-08-05

Description

In this powerful episode of Making the Impossible Inevitable, Curt Cronin sits down with longtime teammate and mentor Bob Alpigini to explore a lifetime of leadership—from early failure to commanding warships in high-stakes environments.

Bob shares the moment that defined his leadership: five quiet words spoken in total chaos.

“This is the Captain. I have the conn.”

What follows is a masterclass in presence, preparation, and leading with calm authority—when it matters most.

🎧 Tune in to hear:

How failure can shape future mastery
Why preparation isn't about control—but readiness
What leadership looks like beyond the titles

This isn’t about ego. It’s about trust.

It’s about showing up fully when it counts.
