S3 E6 Lyla Kohistany - Afghan American who fought the Taliban and now helps SOF leaders lead

Dela

Lyla Kohistany is a former U.S. Navy Intelligence Officer who supported SOF through much of the GWOT and now serves as a cultural consultant for the command. As a child Lyla was brought to the U.S. as a refugee from the Soviet War on Afghanistan in the 1980's. Her familiarity with the Afghan culture made her an invaluable asset to SOF's efforts in Afghanistan, but it hasn't exactly been smooth sailing Lyla. From almost becoming a child bride to becoming the CEO of a non-profit, Lyla Kohistany embodies the SOF tenet "Humans are more important than hardware"!Promote LeadershipEmail: [email protected]Website: www.promoteleadership.orgHonor the PromiseEmail: [email protected]Website: www.honorthepromise.vetSubscribe to SOFcast today!
