World-Class Leadership Lessons From A Decorated Military Veteran and Business Leader

John Lesko was this week's guest on Success Profiles Radio. He is the co-founder of the Global Academy for Extraordinary Teams and Leaders, which is a five day leadership training academy for first time leaders and advanced leaders in business. The instructors are world-class, with backgrounds in intelligence, military operations, athletics, R&D, and business. We discussed what they consider to be the core competencies of leadership, including character, courage, commitment, competence, and compassion. These ideas are taught through highly interactive experiences throughout the Washington DC area several times a year. In addition, we discussed overcoming fear, the role of public speaking in developing a leadership voice, and the most influential books that have shaped John's career and life. Finally, we discussed the variety of ways John and his team markets and raises awareness for his organization.
