I'd love to hear from you; feel free to send me a Text MessageThis episode is also available as a video podcast on my YouTube Channel here:https://youtu.be/MIQoHdtZQUULord George Robertson is a man with a justifiably extremely impressive reputation.  Formerly Secretary of State for Defence in the UK, and subsequently, Secretary General of NATO, George is the only man (so far at least) to have ever invoked NATO's Article 5, the collective security guarantee, in the aftermath of the attack on the World Trade Centre in New York in 2001.It was a huge privilege to have a statesman of his experience and calibre on the podcast and it was a fascinating discussion.  We cover not only aspects of George's personal experience but also a lot of really interesting and very current geopolitical topics, including George's personal experiences of meeting Vladimir Putin!  If you have even a passing interest in current world affairs this episode will definitely be of interest to you and I really hope you enjoy it.You can find George on LinkedIn here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-robertson-97895820/Support the showThank you for listening!  If you value the content I produce, please consider supporting the show financially by becoming a member at https://www.patreon.com/leading4life/ or clicking the "Support the Show" link above.You will have the choice of becoming a Supporter, a Champion or a Patron of the show and any contribution you feel able to make will be hugely appreciated.You can find more about me here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/judsonbob/X: https://x.com/JudsonBobWebsite: https://leading4life.co.uk/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Leading4Life
