Leading Through Chaos — Lessons From an Elite Special Ops Commander | Phil Kornachuk

Leading Through Chaos — Lessons From an Elite Special Ops Commander | Phil Kornachuk

This week’s conversation is with Phil Kornachuk, a highly-trained military expert with 22 years of service in the U.S. Army Special Ops Command. After serving with both the 2nd Battalion Rangers and the Green Berets, being deployed 12 times, and receiving a Silver Star – the 3rd highest award for valor in combat – Phil decided to leave his military career behind and channel his experience into a new kind of mission: helping people and businesses forge high performance leadership skills.

Indexing on self-mastery, mindset training and resilience, Phil’s passion for developing purpose-driven leaders and high performing teams has taken the form of executive coaching, 1-on-1 training, hands-on workshops and even back-country expeditions through his company StoneWater Training.

Phil and I share the belief that there are no shortcuts, and you’ll hear all about how this high school dropout who grew up on a dairy farm in Ontario, Canada cultivated a mental toughness and leadership acumen that’s even more impressive than his physical fortitude.

In this conversation, you’ll hear how Phil exemplifies true grit, a detailed story of how he earned his Silver Star, and how his philosophy came to be “know yourself, lead yourself, lead others.”
