Fear of flying is one of the most common phobias in the U.S., but my guest today knew he wanted to spend his life in the air the moment his dad let him climb into a cockpit.
But, a fear of heights and claustrophobia are probably the last two things you’d want if your dream was to become a fighter-pilot.
And yet my guest today endured both while doing what he loved and teaching others to do the same.
Waldo Waldman flew F-16s as an instructor, and in combat, serving in the United States Air Force for more than two decades, and his story is proof that passion can be made greater than fear when communication and community are at the core of what you’re doing.
Now a NYT bestselling author and National Speakers Hall of Fame inductee, he sits down to share stories from his life and lessons from his book, Never Fly Solo, in this week's episode of Legal Grounds.
We discuss the myth of the Maverick - both in the air and in the board-room, the need for leaders to take the time to learn about their team, and why your backup plan really should have a backup plan.
Enjoy the show!
