Don’t Walk on the Grass: No Shortcuts Allowed

This encore with Wayne Martindale is absolutely fantastic... We dive into Emory’s MBV program, which, by the way, is elite—top-tier academics, zero handouts. Wayne breaks down why he chose Emory: real camaraderie, serious rigor, and leadership that actually delivers. We talk project management, translating military excellence into corporate wins, and the truth nobody admits: recruiters often miss the massive leadership veterans bring. Big accountability, 24/7 ownership—no excuses. You’ll hear about the 101st Airborne bond, the Emory network, and a simple rule everyone should follow: everyone comes through the door...you earn it. Tremendous insights, real talk, and huge respect to Major General Matt Smith, Lorenzo Suarez, and the whole MBV crew (Shenita—total backbone). If you want results, this is the playbook.
