Lt Col Dan Rooney, Founder and CEO of Folds of Honor – Embrace challenges
Manage episode 346627108 series 2782630
Today’s guest is Lieutenant Colonel Dan Rooney, a highly decorated Air Force fighter pilot, and the founder and CEO of Folds of Honor. Now, Folds of Honor is an amazing nonprofit that gives scholarships to family members whose loved ones have died or become disabled while serving in the Armed Forces. And – get this – they just expanded their mission to include first responders as well.
You know, Dan is just the perfect person to talk to this week as we’re reflecting on Veterans’ Day and all the incredible sacrifices our military servicemen and women have made for our freedom. Dan’s got the kind of leadership wisdom you can only earn when you’re flying through a dust storm in Iraq going a thousand miles an hour with the wing of your aircraft literally six inches away from your buddy’s.
I mean, the stakes are high and the challenges are nonstop – but hey, that’s where great leaders shine. We’re defined by how we respond when we face tough moments. In this conversation, Dan shares how we can actually be ready for those difficult times, embrace them, and come through them even stronger.
So here is my conversation with my good friend – and soon to be yours – Dan Rooney.
