​
Brig. Gen. Michael R. Drowley is the Commander of the 57th Wing, Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. He is responsible for 36 squadrons at 12 installations constituting the Air Force's most diverse flying wing. He is a lifelong student of leadership and an excellent practitioner.  Today, "JB" discusses leading in the age of social media, not taking himself too seriously, and his views on the "character of leadership".  We also discuss leadership toxicity and how he protects his teams, and his leadership legacy, from toxicity.  Brigadier General Drowley is an avid reader; he shares his reading list with us (to include a book by Simon Sinek in which he plays a leading "role").   https://www.nellis.af.mil/About/Biographies/Display/Article/2307981/brigadier-general-michael-r-drowley/ https://simonsinek.com/product/leaders-eat-last/

This was a lot of fun; absolute style points for having jet noise in the background!!! As a retired BG, and FWIC grad and instructor; it was awesome to empathize with some of JB's points.... well done! Also, as a guy who has been coaching business leadership for the past 12 years as a member of Afterburner ... one of the most important things discussed was the importance of "leaders intent" .. making sure the team understands why the leader is taking the action; as well as the "read back" after meetings etc to ensure proper and accurate direction is conveyed.

nice job!

Outstanding! Great interview and it's always good to hear leaders who get empathy, humility and vulnerability. Thanks for leading in this arena.
