6ers, a leader with a service mentality is one who provides guidance without expecting anything in return. In approach to leadership, one is motivated by something greater than themself, and is dedicated to the happiness of those around them. As part of their commitment to service, they maintain rigorous standards for themselves.
This week, Tony Nash is joined by Mike Thirtle, a USAF Captain until his retirement in 2011 and the current CEO of Gary Sinise Foundation, a non-profit that honors defenders, veterans, first responders, their families, and those in need.
You will gain an understanding of why it's important to return to the basics of leadership and how to remove obstacles to service.
Your understanding of how to lead and give back to the community through mission-focused volunteerism and charitable works that provide a safe space for those who are struggling to heal and move forward in life through empowerment will grow as a result.
