TCP Ep 45: Author and Podcast Host Jeff Clark
Hey everybody, tonight I’m talking to Author and Podcaster Jeff Clark
Jeff Clark is an author, and decorated leader having spent over 12 years on active duty in the Air Force and has continued his service with the military as a civilian ever since. His nearly 20-year career has seen him lead teams in logistics, operations, readiness & plans, business, and special programs for the US Air Force and US Space Force.
He’s worked with the US Army, US Navy, and US Space Force for joint ventures, including the standup of Space Operations Command, and multiple engagements for Operations Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and US Army NORTHCOM.
In his debut book, Hear These Truths, Clark outlines the crucial steps readers should take to design their own philosophy, or what he calls their algorithm, to rule the workplace and understand their leadership mission, vision, and goals.
"Approaching leadership without a strategy will bury you and slow your progress," said Clark, a coach, and mentor with certifications in Lean Six Sigma, technical training, and executive leadership. "The way an algorithm - a rule set for success - guides the content of a website, your school of thought on leading must do the same. It's the 'call to action.'"
Clark draws upon his experiences as an entrepreneur, as a retired Air Force logistician serving during Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, and as a government civil service employee to lay out a clear plan for readers to win in the workplace.
This plan covers: defining leadership; distinguishing between power and purpose; being a servant leader; making smart decisions with confidence; becoming empowered and empowering others; effectively communicating and listening; and, accountability and its importance for leaders and teams.
In addition to his writing Jeff hosts the Course of Action podcast where he discusses military and spy thrillers and veteran issues.
Jeff lives in Oklahoma with his wife and three children, his oldest currently serving on active duty in the Air Force.
