027: Making Way with Will Martin

What does it mean to make way in leadership? For former Royal Australian Navy Captain Will Martin, progress as a leader has demanded humility, communication savvy, and above all - a commitment to mission. In this episode of Frontline to Boardroom, I speak with Will Martin, a veteran of over 30 years of service in the Royal Australian Navy and a third-generation Naval Officer. With Command of two ships and operational service in the Middle East and on our borders, he also served as the senior Navy representative in the Australian High Commission in London. In his final full-time posting in the Navy, Will was responsible for all aspects of warfare training across the Navy. Along with his wife Helen, he now runs Waterline Leadership - a leadership development practice focussed on senior teams and emerging leaders. What I loved about our conversation was Will’s humility and willingness to get down and dirty to discuss some of the leadership challenges of today. His extensive real-world experience isn’t merely retrospective; he’s focused on paying forward hard-won insights through emerging leader development, irrespective of industry. Join Will to hear how lessons from the command of two Navy ships have charted his course as a leadership consultant. Gain insights on unifying teams, focusing through crisis, and developing the self-awareness required of those called to command and lead others.

026: Truths To Lead Yourself with Elizabeth McCormick

Losing a job you worked so hard to get into and has defined a significant portion of your life can lead to a pervasive sense of loss and confusion. While the struggle to reconcile the person who you once were with the uncertain realities of the present exists, this also serves as an opportunity to discover truths to lead yourself and begin a new journey. In this episode of Frontline to Boardroom, I speak with Elizabeth McCormick, a decorated US Army Black Hawk Helicopter Pilot who flew air assault, command and control, top-secret, intelligence, and VIP transport missions. She served in the 10th Mountain Division, including service in support of the humanitarian mission in Kosovo. Elizabeth’s journey into and out of the military is proof that life is indeed filled with opportunities and having the right mindset and courage to go after these will always be rewarded. From the moment she decided to join the army, to the crucial decision to join corporate America and eventually ventured out to keynote speaking, these instances showcased that although things may take an unexpected turn, it may just be the transition needed to embark on a new chapter. Elizabeth’s captivating story from soaring military success to achieving remarkable professional achievements tells about her commitment to resilient leadership that inspires others to seize the reins of their destiny and carve their own paths to success.
