The belief that maverick leaders and self-made entrepreneurs set the bar is no longer relevant in today's volatile business world. While self-leadership is critical to success, no one performs at their highest level without the support of equally skilled partners. Fighter pilots call these partners wingmen. Like the world of aerial combat, today's high stakes business world operates faster than the speed of sound. Teamwork and trust are critical to overcome the missiles of adversity, fear and change. Like a fighter pilot, you too need wingmen to help you to conquer these missiles and take positive action that will lead to success. In Never Fly Solo, former combat decorated fighter pilot Lt. Col. Rob "Waldo" Waldman shares business critical concepts for success and delivers a very human message: we all have missiles in life to overcome and we can't do it alone. But it's not just about survival. From trusted partners come better ideas, more opportunities and best practices. Their role looms larger than the accountability of a board of directors … reaches deeper than the advice of a mentor or trainer … and stands firmer than the contribution of an employee. Trusted partners have the greatest power to expand your performance because they are as vested in your success as you are theirs. Whether you're an entrepreneur, seasoned executive or simply looking to enhance your current personal relationships, Never Fly Solo will help you learn to:
Like the world of aerial combat, today’s high-stakes business world operates faster than the speed of sound. Teamwork and trust are critical for thwarting the missiles of fear, change, and risk that too often send even the most seasoned professional into a downward spiral. You can’t dodge these missiles alone. Never Fly Solo is your flight plan for taking positive action that leads to greater success.
