The Necessity of Connection and Relationships in War (with Scott Mann) - a podcast by Mark Divine / The SEALFIT Network

Mark speaks with Scott Mann. Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Scott Mann is a former U.S. Army Green Beret with tours all over the world,, including Colombia, Iraq, and multiple tours in Afghanistan. He is a warrior storyteller and the founder of Rooftop Leadership,, where he shares the rapport-building skills he learned in Special Forces to help today’s leaders make better human connections in high-stakes, low-trust engagements. Scott helps organizations gain a better understanding of their internal culture while exposing the potential for conflict that exists when trust has deteriorated. His recent book, Operation Pineapple Express, was an instant New York Times best seller.

Key Takeaways:

• Leadership: The dynamics of leadership are changing. The old ways of one charismatic leader who knows what to do are shifting to groups of individuals, all understanding that they can lead together more effectively when there is a common vision and goal, mutual understanding, and collaboration.

• Mental Clarity and Calm: The most powerful tool anyone can access in times of duress is mental clarity. When you allow your mind to settle and you take time to pause, it allows you to access your intuition and a deeper knowing of what to do.

• Humans and Connection: The ability to make connections and build relationships across borders is a core component that stabilizes and secures stability and freedom in this country (The United States of America). 

• Veteran’s Voices: The mental health crisis in the U.S. veteran population is rising. It is important to listen to and support this population.
