Lead Yourself Before Leading Others | LEIF BABIN

Most men are infatuated with leading others in some capacity. I get it, I believe the capacity and desire to lead is hardwired into our DNA. That said, too many men want to lead others without effectively leading themselves.

Today, I am joined by former Navy SEAL and New York Times Bestselling Author, Leif Babin, to talk about recognizing excuses you craft for yourself, why brutally honest assessments are crucial, how to build "Leadership Capital" with others, and how to best lead yourself before leading others.

LEIF BABIN

My guest today is a man that likely needs no introduction, Leif Babin.

Leif is a former Navy SEAL and platoon commander for Task Unit Bruiser. He is the recipient of the Silver Star, two Bronze Stars, and the Purple Heart.

After retiring from the Navy after 13 years, he went on to co-found Echelon Front with Jocko Willink and became a Multi-New York Times Bestselling Author with his books, Extreme Ownership and, more recently, The Dichotomy of Leadership. He now serves as the President and Cheif Operating Officer for Echelon Front as they work to serve businesses around the globe and teach them how to more effectively lead from the front.
