My guest today is a one of my coauthor's from Volume 10 of Cracking the Rich Code, a public speaker, a public servant with over 45 years of experience in public affairs and troubleshooting communications for the government.
His story is unique in that John has always put himself in positions to be challenged and followed his passions at every turn.
From starting off as an Electrical engineering student turned Journalist major, to 15 years in the Navy running TV/Radio/Print/Media/Training and much more. He then took these communication and leadership skills to the government where he served in the Maryland Department of the Environment, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, as well as the Chief of Media and Community Relations for the Department of Homeland Security.
John has a lot to share in this episode, we chat about how to deal with a hostile crowd, ways to handle messaging of unpopular information and what qualities a leader needs in order to communicate effectively.
I learned a lot from John and I find that I'll be applying a lot of what he shared with me in the very near future.
You can find him at John Verrico – Share Your Fire, Leadership & Communications Life Coach & Trainer
