Todd Connor, U.S. Navy veteran and co-founder of the career and professional development program The Collective Academy, speaks with “Next Steps Forward” host Chris Meek about how to facilitate an environment in which leaders thrive and how to transform the way that we think and deal with the challenges that life presents. Connor will also discuss how he aims to empower military veterans as leaders in innovation through his national nonprofit, Bunker Labs, and his new book “Third Shift Entrepreneur,” which explores how to pursue your dreams of starting a business without being held back by financial and personal risks. Having held a multitude of leadership roles in both the public and private sector, Connor will share with listeners how they can find success in their entrepreneurial endeavors, how to be a true leader while being of service to others and how to be in control of redirecting their lives.
