In this episode, with Knight Campbell, founder of Cairn Leadership Strategies. we explore Knight’s unique approach to leadership development that combines outdoor adventures with impactful learning experiences. Knight shares his journey from flying helicopters for the Navy to teaching leadership at the Naval Academy, and finally to creating a business that uses nature as a classroom. The conversation delves into the lessons learned from mountaineering, the importance of intentional leadership, and how slowing down and reflecting can lead to powerful personal and professional growth. Listeners will gain insights into the transformative power of nature, the concept of leaving no trace, and the idea of 'risk homeostasis' in both the mountains and leadership roles. Knight also emphasizes the significance of core values, storytelling, and creating a supportive environment for learning and innovation.00:00 Welcome and Catching Up00:39 Introduction to Guest's Background02:03 Journey into the Mountains04:35 Lessons from the Mountains07:09 Building Connections in Nature12:21 Reflections on Personal Growth22:03 Parallels Between Hobbies and Leadership37:38 Risk and Innovation42:37 Navigating Psychological Safety43:21 Lessons from the Navy and the Mountains45:59 The Power of Slowing Down48:40 Leave No Trace: A Leadership Metaphor55:11 Core Values and Leadership01:03:31 The Essence of Leadership01:15:17 Advice and Reflections01:19:19 Connecting and Continuing the Journey
