This is Part 4 of our series of podcasts which steer away from our usual format to focus on the subject of caring, compassionate, empathetic and kind leadership. We are delighted to bring back snapshots of our discussion with Andy Riise, a retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel, and respected leader and mental performance coach.  Andy spent over 20 years leading Soldiers from elite Special Forces to teaching psychology and leadership at West Point, the US Air Force Academy, and Texas A&M University. In this, and the following Part of the show, we gain insights into the new approach to the traditional military narrative of command and control, highlighting the potential for leaders to be both strong and compassionate to help others succeed and accomplish any mission in life. The idea of Leadership is simple, less so is delivering it. In our next book, Who Cares Wins, we have asked prestigious contributors to share their knowledge, experiences and expertise in addressing the challenges of 21st Century leadership. Some of the authors have already voiced their thoughts in our Talking Toughness podcast series. We are taking a look back on their insights into the challenges and guidance on how to face the current leadership issues to enable individuals and organisations to flourish. "I want to help leaders and their teams get better from the insight out." - Andy Riise " People are going to do what they need to do, and sometimes the best ting for them is to cut their loses and to move on. You can be mentally tough and cut your loses." - Andy Riise "I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my warrior tasks and drills." - The U.S. Army Soldier's Creed
