Imagine this . . .

You just left the Marine Corps where you had been an officer and a pilot.
You landed your dream job as a pilot for American Airlines.
Your first day on the job was September 11, 2001.

Richard Rierson doesn’t have to imagine it; he lived it. That experience is part of his leadership story.

In this interview, Richard shares the leadership lessons he learned in the military, in corporate America, and now as a consultant, speaker, and host of the top-rated podcast, The Dose of Leadership. More importantly, Richard explains how the insights in one part of his life transferred and helped him in all that came next.

In this episode, you’ll learn important lessons.

How to move forward after a big setback
Why decision-making must be pushed down to the lowest possible level
The key to making decisions in the context of chaos
How to push yourself to move forward when you are afraid
Why you must remain clear on your priorities and live out those priorities

He actually has two podcasts and has interviewed exceptional leaders including Ken Blanchard (author of The One Minute Manager), Fred Smith (Chairman and CEO of FedEX), Steve Forbes, CEO of Forbes Media, Gene Kranz, Flight Director for Apollo 13, and many more.

The Dose of Leadership Podcast

The Courageous Leadership Podcast

We’re excited about the new course that Richard is launching called The Podcast Roadmap. Since we started Your Leadership Story Podcast in January 0f 2014, we know first-hand how overwhelming the process can be. We have not taken Richard’s course since it is just launching but we are impressed by who he is and the work he does so we do recommend you take a look. By the way, we have no financial stake. We’re simply passing along this information because we have been impressed by Richard and his work.
