89 Days Under Water: Army Vet Saves 6 Factories in Thailand

from Adapt and Overcome Podcast · host Tommy Hardaway

In this powerful episode of the Adapt and Overcome Podcast, Tommy Hardaway sits down with Army veteran, executive leader, and bestselling author George Murray. With over 30 years of experience in global operations, manufacturing, and supply chain, George shares how discipline, leadership, and resilience shaped his journey from the military to the C-suite. George opens up about his time in the United States Army and how those lessons continue to guide his leadership style today. From embracing challenges to staying focused under pressure, he explains how the military mindset helped him transform struggling businesses and lead teams through uncertainty. One of the most compelling moments of the conversation is George’s experience in Thailand, where six factories under his leadership were hit by devastating floods and submerged under 30 feet of water. Faced with overwhelming odds, George relied on his military training and problem-solving mindset to lead recovery efforts. In just 89 days, his team brought all six factories back online—faster than anyone else in the industrial park. The conversation also explores George’s perspective on artificial intelligence. Rather than fearing job loss, he believes AI is a tool to enhance human capability. He emphasizes the importance of becoming a lifelong learner and adapting to change in an evolving workforce.   Be a Guest Are you a successful business owner, entrepreneur, or professional with insights to share?
