“The reality is that the only way change comes is when you lead by example.” -Anne WojcickiWith over 200 years of proud heritage and rich tradition, the United States Army is one of the largest, most sophisticated organizations in the world today. The 1.1 million person Army Force, comprised of Active Duty, the National Guard and Reserve Forces, is approximately 16% women and 30% racial minorities. Changing anything inside a bureaucracy this large is an undertaking that requires grit, willpower, and an indominable spirit—and that's exactly what one determined woman brought to bear to change the Army for the better.In this episode of the “Leading from Purpose” podcast, Nick Craig, talks with Dr. Andrea Peters—Army Lieutenant Colonel and West Point Assistant Professor whose purpose is “to be the rocky jawed, gap spanning amp” that amplifies the voices of those who can't to provide them a bridge to their future. Listen to hear how she overcame serious illness, bureaucratic machinations, and deeply entrenched government policy to change Army regulation 670-1—Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia. Through diligence and determination, Lieutenant Colonel Peters—a second generation soldier—marshalled women leaders from across the Army to bring the military grooming standards more on line with social norms to help women—women of color in particular—express themselves more fully and feel a stronger sense of belonging in today's all volunteer force. If you want to hear how one person's dogged leadership by example overcame 40 years of history, listen in to this engaging episode.

From an early age, Michael Waltz was drawn to history, devouring every history book he could get his hands on at the local library. Raised by a single mother, who worked her way up the corporate ladder from clerk to executive vice president for Prudential Securities, Waltz had plenty of inspiration to draw from. That, coupled with his deep knowledge of history, led him to want to serve his country, where the path his mother took was possible. He ended up graduating from the Virginia Military Institute, and eventually earning his Green Beret after leaving active duty and returning to the Reserve Forces to continue serving. After the Q Course, Waltz served multiple combat tours in Afghanistan, the Middle East, and Africa. He has also served as a White House and Pentagon policy advisor, coupling his on-the-ground combat knowledge with strategic policy formulation and direction. He is now a U.S. Congressman, representing Florida’s 6th congressional district, and advocating for more servant leadership in government and a national service program.

This month’s podcast guest Dr. Simon Gallier shares with us his unique journey through life and his ground-breaking approach to applying the principles of the John Lewis Partnership into dental practice ownership. After leaving Manchester Grammar School for Manchester Dental School, Simon became an army cadet and this led him from the Army Dental Corps to becoming part of an elite group within the Parachute Regiment. Not your every-day dental career pathway. Having moved from the military back to Civvie Street (although he continued for 10 years in the Reserve Forces), Simon soon started buying practices including two dental and one aesthetic clinic in Harley Street but it wasn’t long before he was looking at retail high-street dentistry, many years before Boots and others considered this distribution method. He pioneered the use of lasers in UK dentistry and became Clinical Director of a major corporate before returning to his independent search for excellence. Along the way came a fascination with the vision that had taken John Lewis from one store to the company they are today and their philosophy of making all employees “partners” in the growth of the organisation. Today he is CEO of Future Health Partnership, a revolutionary micro-corporate who embrace the employee partnership philosophy. As well as hearing all about Simon’s extraordinary journey, we will hear some of his guiding principles, based on what he learned in the military, in retail and in corporate life - messages for all owners and managers about what makes elites successful - and how to play at the top of your game whilst serving your community. You will learn how to transform a workforce who turn over at 20% per annum into a team who stay with you for 20 years. P.S. a medal of valour for Ashley, who came to this interview the day after Manchester City had clinched their second Premier League title and two reds interviewed a true blue!

"Meadowlark Lemon was one of the finest and most decent people I’ve ever known. Like most of my era, I remember, as a boy, my father taking me to see the “Clown Prince of Basketball” and the Harlem Globetrotters. However, it will be Meadowlark “The Man” that I was fortunate to get to know later in life and whom I will always remember. Meadowlark Lemon was a man of faith who loved people, and believed in giving back. Born in Lexington, South Carolina, Meadowlark and his family moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, where he grew up. After playing basketball at Florida A&M and a stint in the US Army, it was on to the Harlem Globetrotters. Meadowlark quickly emerged as the most famous Globetrotter at a time when they could defeat almost any NBA team. We think of Meadowlark for his on-court antics, but he was a great basketball player and an even greater person. Speaking to inner-city youth at a Salvation Army event I was involved in a few years ago, Meadowlark told the kids that, “There’s no excuse in missing a free throw shot. It’s free. They’re giving it to you. Take it!” Meadowlark knew what he was talking about. His lifetime free throw percentage of 97 percent is the best of anyone who has ever played the game. Meadowlark had his own Christian ministry and it touched many. He prayed with President Ronald Reagan in the Oval Office and he witnessed to and prayed with Alabama Governor George Wallace at his bedside."
