Items mentioned:

How he got his passion for leadership

Leaving the marine corps after 10 years

Working for American Airlines (officially on the day of the 9/11 attack!)

Joining the corporate arena by October 2001

How his Marine Corps experience impacted his success

Understanding that leadership is central to everything that you do:
Focus on yourself first.
Focus on your family.
Everything else will follow.

The 4 C’s of Leadership
Calm
Confident
Consistent
Courageous

Why the 4 C’s should become a lifelong pursuit
It’s the essence and the beginning of establishing leadership foundation and culture within yourself.
It releases fear, limiting doubts, and uncertainty in yourself.
People will unconsciously see that in you and that gives them the freedom to do the same.

The most overlooked aspect of leadership: The idea that leaders have to have all the answers
Being afraid to admit mistakes.
Being afraid to say they don’t know.
Figuring they can’t be the one that doesn’t have the answers.

Richard’s biggest liberating moment in his leadership career:
When he finally accepted and stopped caring about being wrong

Dealing with mistakes:
No one likes to make mistakes; but if you make them, embrace them.
It’s not necessarily a failure but a great learning opportunity

The powerful combination: Admitting you don’t have the answers + You know that it’s going to get done!

The biggest misconception of leadership: Being in the position to lead to effect change.
