Francis Racioppi, the host of the Jedburgh podcast, is joining me for this week's episode. Francis, a former Green Beret and infantry officer, served multiple tours to Iraq and Africa. Through discussing the complexities of the conflict in Iraq and leading men on the battlefield, Francis gives excellent insight into the bigger picture. He spent time in Africa looking at different forces and assessing what groups could be turned into special operations units to combat radical terrorism on the continent—founder of FRsix, where he advises businesses and leaders seeking to improve themselves, their teams, and organizations.
