We discuss the challenges and opportunities that social media presents for military leadership, examining its effect on command climate, esprit de corps, and the authenticity of information. With personal anecdotes and expert insights, the episode navigates the complexities of leading in a digital age where perceptions can be shaped by viral posts and online commentary.
