In this episode of the In Service podcast, “The Realities of India’s Fire Service Industry”, we feature a special guest, Udit Agrawal, the director of Brijbasi, a family-owned company providing innovative solutions in the field of fire fighting, safety, security, disaster management and rescue equipment with headquarters in New Delhi, India for over 50+ years.

You have to be calm even in the toughest of situations. One year can be a very challenging one, but if you have hope at that time then it doesn't matter anymore.

Leaders Need to Look in the Mirror
In this episode of the In Service podcast, “Leaders Need to Look in the Mirror”, we feature a special guest, Kyle Matousek, a lieutenant firefighter and Darley essay competition winner. Kyle shares lifelong lessons he learned from his experience in the US coast guard that he now applies to his day-to-day life in the fire service. He shares insights from his Darley award winning essay about “Introspection” and how we all need to inspect our current habits in order to truly change into the best version of ourselves. He also overall emphasizes the idea of how important it is to find and stay true to your true self, in order to reach your ultimate success. “I think a lot of times we have to look at the success and failures as leaders of our people as our own successes and failures. And I think that's overlooked way too often. We wanna enjoy the successes of our teams, our company, our crews, but we also wanna own those failures as well and realize our involvement and lack of involvement or our attitude towards that enables or does not enable somebody's ability to succeed. So we have a part in all of it, whether we like to think so or not.” - Kyle Matousek Kyle Matousek, MS | LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyle-matousek/)

Because if you're kind of a ‘one trick pony’ for a lack of better terms I think that might be successful in certain occasions, but then it's not going to serve you across, every call, every personal conflict, every hazard that we face…you can't just be this ‘one trick pony’ and hope to limp your way through a career as lieutenant.
