I anticipate we’re willing to put our lives on the line — & the same side that line — for similar reasons… Lili is our granddaughter.

I developed these nine principles of Communication-Based Leadership while serving in the field as a Marine Corps Public Affairs Officer, because hyper-connectivity at the speed of Send was just emerging & it was obvious to me the doctrinal “principles of information” at the time were insufficient.

Over the course of years in leadership positions and as a scholar of leadership, here are four timeless truths to help guide you — whatever your personal leadership philosophy & style may be. Hit me with questions or critique as you prefer. I’m open to a good conversation!

What your watching unfold here is learning through raw teaching. I’m working w/ some creative folks to build out an online presence to develop leaders that is more robust than my current ad hoc effort. Take advantage of the tips & don’t hesitate to offer your own — I’m wide open to critique!

I'm a fan of the Roadhouse Rule: Be nice, until it's time to not be nice.

Sharing some thoughts on setting boundaries for tolerance of @$$holes in the social media environment. Your mileage may vary. It’s a first-take-done to test the Captions app’s AI subtitling & graphics gen tool. Worked fine/fast, but I feel authenticity lost may be greater than efficiency gained.

Correct. Enlistment is a contract. Commission is an appointment by Congress “at the pleasure of the President” (Alas…) Under the law, officers serve to provide “best military advice” to the President & Congress. Here is the Oath of Commission I reaffirmed as a retiree on Nat’l Constitution Day.

Hell, the President swears a similar Oath. Here’s what I had to say about that on Constitution Day. (Would share a cell with Sen. Kelly in a heartbeat.)

Rhodes: Who looks like a more stable and predictable actor? The Chinese Communist Party, where maybe you think they’re bullies, but the terms never change? Or the United States, where you have a president who’s been imposing tariffs, launching wars, shaking you down for essentially tribute payments?

Sec. Buttigieg: Most Americans agree with us that the government should be doing more and not less to make sure you can get health care, and that you can afford it. That means expanding Medicaid and expanding the Affordable Care Act — not tearing it down.
