20. 10 Lessons In Leadership from the Last 10 Years w/ Capt Jackie Barnum

On July 1, 2010 Jackie + I entered the Naval Academy on Induction Day, or "I-Day," raised our right hand, took the oath, + entered into the Navy. At the time we were both only 17, without any idea of what was ahead or how the service academy--and serving our country--would develop us into leaders. If you're about to embark on an exciting change in position, a promotion, or maybe you've been serving in the military for awhile, this episode will shed new light on ideas + how to develop your leadership style.  In this episode, we're celebrating a milestone in our lives: 10 years since we entered the US Naval Academy (USNA) + 10 years we've been best friends. Jackie + I met on our very first day at USNA + truly have never stopped supporting each other since. We're diving into TEN lessons we've learned in leadership over these last 10 years, whether it's from going to a Service Academy or experiences in the fleet, we've been challenged, frustrated, failed, succeeded, + learned a lot about ourselves along the way.  As both Naval + Marine Corps Officers, we've learned how to adapt + overcome to many obstacles, continue to grow in facets of leadership, + hope to share a few inspiring lessons from our hearts to yours.  Want to connect with Captain Jackie Barnum?
