Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Jason and Tom explore how Jason was given the opportunity back in April of 2019 to lead a team or squadron of 80 people into a combat situation in the Middle East. The original assignment was to take over the squadron and be ready for deployment. The timeframe to prepare was about 12 months; however, conditions changed rather quickly after taking command of the squadron and their timeline to get prepared for deployment changed from 12 months to six weeks. The squadron did deploy successfully but the team development work over that six week period wasn’t without its challenges, mistakes and emotional tension. If you’re interested in learning how Jason and his team pulled together their squadron to be combat ready under extreme time constraints, then you do not want to miss this episode.
