Stuck in a low-trust environment? Scott Mann has been there— and he’s got a plan to help you navigate it.

What if I told you that your biggest leadership challenge isn’t what you think it is? 

In this “Success for the Athletic-Minded Man” episode, I chat with Scott Mann, a former U.S. Army Green Beret, who’s been there, done that. 

Trust me, his take on leadership is going to flip your idea of what it means to lead on its head.

Scott isn’t just any guest— he’s a warrior storyteller with combat tours in Colombia, Iraq, and Afghanistan under his belt. 

He’s also the brains behind Rooftop Leadership, where he teaches today’s leaders how to build trust in high-stakes, low-trust environments. His methods? The same ones he used to empower local tribes in war zones— turning impossible odds into victories.

Curious about how to make unshakable human connections or why storytelling might be your secret weapon? Scott’s got answers. 

Plus, he’ll share insights from his best-selling books “Operation Pineapple Express” and “Game Changers, Going Local to Defeat Violent Extremists,” and his powerful play-turned-film that’s making waves on Amazon Prime, “Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret.”

If you're ready to lead like a Green Beret and rethink everything you thought you knew about leadership, this is the episode you can't afford to miss. 

Listen now and get ready to elevate your game.
