086 - An Examination of Failure: MAJ Cordell Hachinsky, MD, Part 1

Today's guest is a West Point Graduate and an Army combat veteran who came back from Afghanistan to then went to Med School and become an Army doctor.  Major Cordell Hachinsky is a friend of mine who I regularly had lunch with while he was attending the Command and General Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, KS. I split the interview into two parts:  This first part talks a lot about leadership and training and why we need to allow our subordinates to fail if we really want the best for them.  Part two includes some lessons from Med School and the War in Afghanistan that drive home the point about humility and making career decisions.
