Pretty cool discussion. Perhaps not perfect, but gets a key point across.

The Book, Extreme Ownership, by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin is a broader view of his theme. We hired them to help change the culture in one of our businesses. This really helped reduce the finger pointing, whining and stovepipe behavior.

    "There are no shortcuts, there are no hacks". I agree completely. Too many have grown up (???) with these are the primary means of accomplishing anything/everything. When these are not available they don't know what to do or how to succeed.
