In episode 410, Zac Elenchin, a former combat medic in the US Army, shares his leadership journey and experiences with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) —as well as post-traumatic growth. Zac discusses how to develop poise under pressure, the power of servant leadership, and a highly tactical word-for-word phrase leaders can use to acknowledge their mistakes within their team. Zac then talks about his transition from the military to civilian life and his collaboration with his father on a book about PTSD. To close, Zac talks about how he joined 84 Lumber and the training and support he received to make the successful transition into a management role.   Chapters 01:20 :: Favorite Leadership Movie: Saving Private Ryan 07:07 :: Handling Mistakes and Apologizing as a Leader 10:14 :: Insights from the Military Applied to Civilian Life 15:09 :: Developing Trust and Building Camaraderie 26:32 :: Transitioning from the Military to Civilian Life 29:10 :: Collaborating with Father on a Book about PTSD 36:12 :: Joining 84 Lumber and Management Training Program 42:35 :: Conclusion and Gratitude   This episode is brought to you by The Simple Sales Pipeline® —the most efficient way to organize and value any construction sales rep's roster of customers and prospects in under 30 minutes once every 30 days. *** If you enjoyed this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
