Episode 54: Leadership Trek Update

And now for something completely different. This week Brad interviews Jason and his friend and collaborator Aaron as they share an update on their upcoming book, which explores leadership through the lens of the grand captains of Star Trek, and will be published by McFarland. Please join us as we dive deeply into how Trek can inform our own leadership. And if you are interested in the book, drop us a note. Aaron and Jason would love to talk with you.
