Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front
Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front, hosted by Simon Kardynal, is a leadership-themed podcast for emerging leaders across all professions to help navigate those intricate moments while leading from the front. In this podcast, you will hear from guests who have been in your shoes, had the triumphs, and made the mistakes. Each episode offers advice, inspiration, and practical tools to help you lead 'from the trenches'. Throughout the series, Simon uses his personal and professional experiences and connections gained through 26 plus years in the Canadian Armed Forces as a Senior Non-Commissioned Member, a Master of Arts in Leadership, and his experience within a private sector company, to have frank and honest conversations with leaders from diverse backgrounds and professions where we talk about the challenges faced as leaders and followers in a dynamic and ever-evolving world.
