    I think when people know your trying to learn as much as possible in a humble positive way people tend to be receptive it's only when you act like you know everything and don't they will be reluctant to engage

    I'm not a leader, only a ordinary employee. But, I kinda have step it up cause of my willingness to help the company, coworkers and pointing out news for my boss.
    - About 3 years ago I started to feel as a leader for myself + for the future of my work on this company.
    - So nowadays my boss + the last boss have kinda set me up as this "working leader" for the new and future employees, got the raise as well.
    - this new situation feels good and natural for me, but it's nothing that I had have as a "clear goal" to accomplish.
    Best regards from Sweden =)

    I've saved and watched this video a dozen times now. I am starting as the State Police Maintenance Chief at their main HQ in a weeks time. It's a pretty important and complicated position... I'm confident in my abilities and gleaming your thoughts has been super helpful to my intended approach when I come to take the reigns. Thank you for your insight and your service.

    First, give a “Hello introduction” statement to everyone regarding why you’re there and your own goals for the company ( basically talk about why you think you got hired). Next, call everyone in that you’ll be working with directly and see why they’re there and what they think is good and bad about the MO or SOP.

    I 100% on Jocko talking about training the police. I ran about 3 miles a day. I boxed twice a week. I gave up 'proper' boxing when I was 15. Bad situation. My fitness saved my life. Too many cops are lazy. If you knew how my fitness saved me, you'd be wow. My dear, late brother, complimented himself. He was one of you guys who gave me tips on how to save me (Brit wimp, SAS )Ha! Good man, Jocko. Apologies. I was almost murdered doing a drugs turn in 1996. Beaten to a pulp with pick-axes. 'Clothes' rope' put round my neck. Given Last Rites. I am so sorry. I survived. But have still survived a wife leaving after 22 years marriage and then the love of my my life moving back to her country after 12 years. Leaving me heartbroken. Jocko. I've been shot, hanged. Beaten to a fucking pulp. My worst experience is 5 days in a full blown panic attack.

    Jocko: how about creating a FM on finding your next mission? It seems to be something important to you, and that you’d be really good at given your current status with publishing, business, etc. Perhaps a civilian, military, and special forces section? Thanks for another great clip Echo!

    when you're new to an organization, here is a hard-won life lesson for me: 1) STFU and keep your head down. when you're new to an org, you don't know who the snitches are, so just keep your mouth shut and don't gossip, bc it's just not worth the soul-robbing anxiety of wondering who may have said what to whom and who knows what, etc etc, especially when that gossip may involve a superior.
    2) If you're new at work, NEVER eat lunch with a coworker until and unless you've vetted them properly, bc what happens when later on you realize this dude you've been eating lunch with for the past few weeks turns out to be a jerk or a loser? it would be so awkward to inform this guy you'd rather have lunch alone or with another group of people lol

    Hello, Jocko and Echo, I have a leadership question, which I don't think has been asked, but this is the only social media platform I have, maybe you will see it.
    I lead a team of around 20-30 maintenance tradesmen (I believe they would be called blue collar workers in Amercia) I was previously a tradesman myself, as such I'm confident that I know what motivates these guys and what makes them tick, we are a good team, we are winning and I believe I'm a good leader. My organisation is setup with other leaders looking after their own teams in operations and projects, myself and the other team leaders then feed into a single manager. My manager is an educated man, extremely intelligent but he has not worked closely with the 'blue collar workers'. I was discussing leadership with my manager today, I suggested that the way he leads us as team leaders (I guess we would be classed as white collar workers) is very different to the way I then lead my team of tradesman, I was trying to make a point that what motivates me and his other team leaders is very different to what motivates the tradesman in my team, and I couldn't lead my team in the same fashion that he leads us. I didn''t make my point well. Do you have an opinion on adapting your leadership style to suit the team? Would you lead your 'ground troops' in the same fashion that you would lead your head officers? (sorry, may have the rank structure wrong there, I'm not a military man). Or does the leadership style stay the same no matter the 'level'? Thanks!

    Forgive me if I am missing information, but is it seriously possible that this wasn't addressed before and Kotter wasn't referenced? John P. Kotter's "Leading Change" has been the gospel in regards to this line of questioning in my experience.

    Identify the weakest link in your organization and deal with that problem. As an individual in a leadership role, a line must be drawn in order to differentiate yourself from your employees. Trying to be everyone's best friend just does not work.

      There will ALWAYS be reason and place for physical strength in the people who fight wars... Sooner or later there will be humans building, repairing, and retrofitting robots...
      ...OR ALL humans will end up obsolete, as we default our very existences to robots, who will likely recode to avoid the wastes of warfare without us humans pushing buttons and giving commands.
