from The Decision Hour · host Heroes Media Group
What can wartime leaders throughout history teach us about effective leadership? In this episode I had the honor of sitting down with Retired U.S. Army Colonel, Christopher D. Kolenda, Ph.D. We get into a deep discussion about the three perspectives that are vital to have when learning about leadership. We talk about how leaders can help inspire their people to be their best for the teams success. He shares a incredible Decision Hour story about a time in Afghanistan in 2007 with his Afghan Army Counterpart, and a local village. Before closing up the show we talk about a journey that Christopher is about to embark on. During the interview he mention the names of the six Paratroopers that were killed in Action. We are near the 15 year anniversary and Christopher is going to be traveling about 1700 miles on a bicycle visiting their graves. They are spread across from Nebraska all the way to Arlington National Cemetery. Make sure to check out The Saber Six Foundation and https://honorride.us to donate and to follow Chris on his journey.
