Taking Care in how you Operate
I welcome Air Force Reserve Officer and the current COO of Icon Source, Pace Stead to the show to have a discussion unlike any we have had before on Career Competitor.
The military is an area that I have always seen great parallels with in relation to the dedication and sacrifice that comes with sport, but obviously the military exemplifies this on all levels!
Pace's story offers such a unique insight into the power of leading by caring for others and why this allows for operations to run efficiently and effectively in the most intense environments.
We also learn all about Icon Source which is a platform that offers athletes the optimal levels for building their brand awareness, and brings multiple parties together so that everyone can benefit.
Within the interview we learn about what Pace is doing on behalf of the Air Force in the present day (3:26); his story of how he became involved with the Air Force and his career within it (4:55); how Operational Research is used in his work (9:30); the way leadership starts by taking an interest in every member of a team (12:12); the power of goal setting day-to-day as opposed to long-term (16:14); his belief in 2 people meeting half way to achieve the best result (18:57); what Icon Source is and the history of how he became involved (20:14); an amazing gesture he played a major part in for the Air Force graduating class (26:47); and my Career Competitor "Keys to Success"
