Major General Timothy LaBarge, the commander of the NY Air National Guard and the assistant adjutant general, reflects on his career of nearly 39 years as he prepares to retire.

Chief and Maj. Gen. LaBarge  talk about lessons learned, culture shock, loneliness and how important it is to just keep moving forward through the uncomfortable times and keep the end-state in mind.

LaBarge's words of advice are to lead by being quietly confident and overly competent, approach your job with humility and always treat people with respect.

There is a lot to unpack in this episode and you may just get a masterclass in leadership.
