Summary
It takes more than just rank or position to be an effective and respected leader on the battlefield, in the boardroom or at home. Today's guest is former Royal Marines Officer Roderic Yapp, founder of Leadership Forces a revered consulting entity in the United Kingdom that is passionate about developing leadership capability to deliver high performance results. In this episode, Roderic discusses his journey from civilian to soldier to entrepreneur, the dangers of the military and the tactical skills he was able to walk away with, and ultimately how he helps others strengthen their mental fortitude and become the leader they need to be for their own pursuits and their team's.
"Leadership training is usually delivered by professional trainers who have an understanding of the ‘theory of management’ but have never led a team. We are practitioners. We’ve been there, led people in challenging environments, made the mistakes and learnt from them. Using a deep understanding of the levers that drive performance, we apply a rigorous and scientifically backed approach to learning and the development of new skills."
