Tom Hustead, The Referent Group

Tom graduated from West Point in the top 3% of his class and subsequently from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. As a retired Army Colonel, highlights from his distinguished 24-year career include being awarded Flight Surgeon of the Year for his service in combat, Outstanding Faculty of the Year for his medical teaching, and board selection as Department Chair for a family medicine residency department. As a result of his appointment by the Army Surgeon General to be the "face of military medicine" to recruit and share the Army Medicine story, Tom recognized a need and developed a passion for teaching physicians across the country to be effective, engaged leaders. In his final appointment in the military, Tom was the commander/CEO of a NATO military medical facility at the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers. After retiring from the military in 2017, Tom has served as the Chief Medical Officer for Hardin Memorial Health and most recently Catawba Valley Health System. He currently serves as the CEO of the The Referent Group, a company committed to excellence in leadership development. Andrew and Tom discuss leadership development, authenticity, and shared success.
