We sit down with retired Air Force intelligence officer and leadership coach Chris Russell to unpack the leadership lessons behind his book More Than a Mission. We talk followership, purpose, crisis leadership, and why clear communication and real accountability are the difference between task completion and true success.
• Chris’s path from ROTC to fighter units, Weapon School, special operations support, and command at NSA • why leadership success requires skills beyond the job skills that earn promotion • learning from both great leaders and toxic leaders, including what not to copy • followership as active responsibility, mission understanding, and smart questions • delegating authority instead of only delegating tasks • leaders as both born and made, with deliberate development and trust • finding purpose by leaning into what you love and what you do well • alignment, clarity, and buy-in as drivers of morale and retention • crisis leadership as calm thinking, not panic reactions • training and systems as the real foundation under pressure • debrief culture and accountability that improves the whole team
