How do you summon the courage to lead when lives are on the line? &nbsp;
With the Russian military attack of Ukraine on the tops of our minds, this question has never been more relevant. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It is the question that I pose to my guest, James Hotaling, MSL, on this special edition of <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-indispensable-conversation/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Indispensable Conversation</a>. &nbsp;
Jim serves as Head of Leadership Development &amp; Assessment at N2Growth. &nbsp;But, it is Jim's 20+ years of experience within U.S. Special Forces that makes him the perfect guest for this episode of The Indispensable Conversation. &nbsp;
Join us for this special episode of The Indispensable Conversation as we confront this crucial question: &nbsp;How do you summon the courage to lead when lives are on the line?

Erik Swoope -- Does our self-talk make any difference at all?

Most podcasts out there today do little more than provide a platform for somebody to promote their latest book. 

As a person who has been interviewed hundreds of times on these kinds of programs, I know how they work – contrived and pre-planned. In fact, you will likely hear the same messages nearly every time an expert is interviewed.

The Indispensable Conversation is different.

We host authentic conversations about real topics that impact leaders of all kinds. There are no read ahead questions, no retakes, no BS.

Just one guest, one provocative question, one indispensable conversation.
