Otis McGregor doesn't just teach leadership—he’s lived it. A retired Green Beret Lieutenant Colonel turned entrepreneur, Otis shares hard-earned lessons on how to lead with clarity, trust, and purpose. In this episode, Otis explains why most business leaders fail when they micromanage, avoid accountability, or try to go it alone. He offers a refreshingly direct take on what it means to lead in today’s world—whether that’s in a combat zone, a boardroom, or your own home.
Otis opens up about the grit behind his 38-year marriage, the power of vulnerability, and how true leadership starts with knowing your purpose and building your tribe. His company, Tribe + Purpose, helps business founders develop leaders at every level of their team, enabling them to scale without burning out.
If you're leading a team, growing a business, or struggling with self-doubt, this conversation is a masterclass in resilient leadership.
