This summer I'm releasing bonus episodes of The Take Home. No new lectures on leadership, instead I'm sharing the amazing podcasts created by students in my Spring 2023 Leadership for Sport Professionals classes.

Today's bonus episode features "The Captain’s Chair" produced and created by Tucker Horn, Michael Somerville, and Gerson Amaya. In the podcast, they interview Colonel (retired) J. Craig Flowers (@JCraigFlowers) who served more than 25 years in the US Army, including three years in North Africa and ten years in direct support of the special operations community. His final military assignment was at West Point where he served as senior staff officer, Director of Cadet Affairs, and Assistant Baseball Coach

Col. Flowers discusses why relationships matter, the value of international travel and engaging with diverse populations, and highlights the importance of getting honest, direct feedback from peers and followers. He also includes three important questions all leaders must answer: 1) What is your mission? 2) What are your values? 3) Are you humble? 

This is an amazing episode!! I know you'll enjoy it. I would be grateful if you'd let me know what you think at @TingleJK.
