Change Your Pov Podcast

We've all heard the saying, "Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail" This week Eddie and Bennett talk about the next two chapters of "Extreme Ownership" Plan, and Leading up and down the Chain of Command. You won't want to miss this episode! 

How tolerant are you when it comes to things you don't know about? How expansive is your emotional literacy?  How willing are you to have hard conversations? How often do you lean in when it becomes uncomfortable? This week Bennett and Eddie talk about things that most only whisper about. Let's all muster up a bit of courage and have some really hard conversations while keeping things civil!  There are always 3 sides to every conversation. What I say and believe, what you say and believe, and then there is the truth somewhere in the middle.

First, find out what the most important things are that need to get done, then do it! If you want things done quicker and more efficiently, give your people the power and authority to do the work! That's what Bennett and Eddie talk about this week, Chapters 7 and 8, Prioritize and Execute and Decentralized Command.

Have you ever sat in a meeting and listened to a business plan and thought to yourself, "wow now that is a lofty plan!" Or perhaps you are with your significant other as they begin to unfold their grandioso idea of what your next weekend is shaping up to look like? Or on the battlefield when that well-meaning Lieutenant cracks open his planning book and spreads out his battle map over the hood of your truck and the lines and shapes you see before you have the makings of what is sure to lead to someone walking away with a Medal of Honor ... but it ain't you? What do all of these scenarios have in common? That's right... They all lack SIMPLICITY!  This week Bennett and Eddie talk about two of the most critical yet often overlooked concepts of any endeavor... Keeping things Simple, and Cover and Move!

You must first ask "Why" before you can "Know". You must "Know" before you can "Believe". You must "Bleve" before you can "Commit". You must "Commit" before you can "Succeed" Ask Why Must Know Must Believe Must Commit To Succeed Oh... And let's not forget about that little thing called "Your Ego"!!

In this episode of Change Your Point of View, Bennett and Eddie discuss Chapter 1 and 2 of Extreme Ownership. The concept of Extreme Ownership and what that means to you and the very hard topic of No bad teams, only bad leaders. Fasten your seatbelts and get ready to look inside your self! 

If you are like me you watched the movie and thought that was all there was to the book by the same name "Starship Troopers" Well turns out... Nothing could be further from the truth. With the exception of some characters in the movie, the fact that they were fighting the "bugs" and the setting was in the future, that was pretty much the end of the similarities.  Check out this episode and get a totally different perspective on this book and what it means to be a citizen. 

We all enjoy time with our friends and family. We also look forward to the official start of summer and BBQ's, and all the things that represent the Memorial Day Weekend. This week Bennett and Eddie discuss what this day means to them and hopefully will open your eyes to what it means to you. Change Your Point Of View!
