EP-341 | Emotions in Leadership - Asset or Liability?

Strong leaders don't command and control, they connect. Relationship-building, social skill, empathy, collaboration and awareness of yourself are all important traits of a strong leader. In this episode, Kyle and Robert are joined by former Sergeant Major Sean Jarvis to talk about the topic of emotions in leadership.

EP-340 | Sean Jarvis | You Can Sit Back or Be in Control

You Can Sit Back or Be in Control
STOP: If you haven't watched "Overcoming Adversities & Getting on Track", please watch that episode first. This is Part 2 of our show with Sean.
Sean Jarvis is a retired sergeant major with the U.S. Army who served as a cavalry scout on multiple deployments and has had several assignments across his 26-year career, including the operations sergeant major for 1st Security Forces Assistant Brigade (1st SFAB). 
Sean talks about a night that leads to a driving while intoxicated (DWI) and the set back it took on his career and mental state. Losing a good friend and mentor in combat took an additional toll on him. He knew he needed to get himself straight and he shares how he overcame these initial challenges by taking the tough love former leaders gave him and using it to get back on track. He then goes into the time when he realized, through those who cared about him, that he can either stay stuck in a rut, or do something about it by taking control of his life and his success.

EP-337 | Jeff Morris - Part 2

The Battle of Haifa Street was a battle fought during January 2007 for the control of Haifa Street, a two-mile-long street in downtown Baghdad, Iraq, pitting American and Iraqi Army forces against various Sunni insurgent forces between January 6 and January 9, 2007 (phase one), and then two weeks later on January 24 when US forces launched a second attempt to clear Haifa Street of insurgents once and for all. This battle was the precursor for clearing operations that would set the conditions for "the surge" which ultimately neutralized insurgent groups in this part of Baghdad during the spring and summer of 2007.
In Jeff Morris's book, "Legion Rising", he describes his time as a commander of a unit that is caught up in one of the fiercest firefights of the war, the battle of Haifa Street. He previously joined us in Episode 291 to share what happened during that battle where he lost 8 men during and then after due to their wounds. He shared that while looking in the mirror after the battle, "A burning sensation on my face caused me to pause. I leaned closer to my reflection and saw a gash, running across my cheek, under my right eye. I stood still for a moment, trying to imagine what could have caused the cut.
And then I realized.
The skin on my face had been torn by fragments of another man's skull. Fragments that were embedded into the flesh of my own hands."Episode 291: https://youtu.be/KLCEOcqXWXc
In this episode, Robert and Kyle sit down with Jeff to discuss more of the lighter side of war, when he met with President George W. Bush, when he fired an M1 tank at a target in war, and other stories.
