Mission America book - Phase II In this episode, Scott talks about the Mission America Book launch and the beginning of phase II for the book

Military transition is broken... it's up to you and me to fix it. To my veterans — what you need to transition is already inside you. And for civilians, know that our military and their families are high performers who were born to lead. Veterans aren't broken, we just need help getting back in the game of civilian life. Join our transition tribe this Veterans Day, and change the game for our warriors.

Transition is one of the greatest challenges facing military service today. PERIOD. And while most Americans are conditioned to believe that veterans should be treated as damaged goods, the majority are some of the highest performing leaders on the planet, capable of solving some of worst problems it faces. We need these people, these warriors, back in the game and back to doing what they do best: leading. But it takes much more than a job to make this happen. It has to happen at a community level, with warriors and civilians working side by side. Simply put, when civilians and veterans connect, communities win.

Special Guest: Sebastian Junger What is it about coming home that is so tough for today's warriors? Why is it so hard to fit into American society after military service? What if our military had it right, and America should follow their lead on what ‘belonging' really means? What are we ignoring about our tribal past that could improve how we fight wars and run our country? Tune into this hard hitting episode with Best-selling Author Sebastian Junger (Perfect Storm, Restrepo, and Tribe) to find out.

In this episode Scott talks about the absence of leadership at our institutional levels. But, take heart, this is not a doom and gloom prognosis – we still live in a democracy and Scott will go over how you can have impact right now – in your life and business – by providing the kind of leadership our politicians, media, and corporate leaders lack. Nobody's else is coming…but that's okay, because you and me make damn good odds.
