Guest:
Combat veteran and current serving Lieutenant Colonel, Garth speaks about leadership, risk, issues facing the ADF and a number of other organisations.

He also speaks about his time in Iraq where he was blown up, Afghanistan and how those experiences led him to become a specialist in IEDs and also risk management.

We also discuss his roles as one of the Chairman for @bravery.trust and  his prior work and role as the head of the Veteran Employment Program in NSW.

If you are a leader or are looked to for decision-making in your team, you will get a lot out of this discussion and hopefully avoid potential crisis. I'm your team.
