Trees, Abatis and Leadership Development

In this episode Shain hosts two military veterans—Remus a Ranger Qualified Airborne Jumpmaster, and Duke a US Army Drill Sergeant—to explore how military leadership, training and accountability can be applied to tree crews and small arborist businesses. They discuss practical topics like morale and retention, setting standards, counseling and talent management, plus on-the-ground parallels between high-performance military teams and residential tree operations.
