You know that sting of a good story meeting you where you are, and this episode with Craig Coyle is exactly that. From piloting Apache helicopters to steering through the corridors of corporate leadership, Craig digs into what really moves leaders forward: solid preparation, a supportive community, and a clear strategic purpose. It’s not about a flashy title or endless buzzwords—it's about showing up ready to grow, show kindness to yourself, and lead with intention.

Craig doesn’t shy away from the gaps in leadership training once you’re not in the C-suite. He shares practical insights on managing up and leading down, plus a fresh take on mission statements as a compass rather than a gimmick. You’ll hear about tools that actually stick in the real world—like a pre-flight checklist for leadership—that help you stay sharp, aligned, and effective with your teams. And there’s a strong emphasis on community: surrounding yourself with people who lift you up and push you to improve.

If you’re chasing a more purposeful, productive, and human-centered approach to leadership, this episode is for you. Tune in to catch the mindset shifts, the actionable habits, and the reminder that leadership development is a strategic investment in relationships, growth, and a lasting sense of clarity. Short takeaways to keep handy: be kind to yourself, prepare with intent, lead up and down thoughtfully, lean into community, and use practical tools to stay on mission.
