John Warren and John Thompson, retired US Marine Corps veterans, discuss the first principle from their book 'Lead Like a Marine' - 'do everything for a reason'. They share insights from their military experiences and how they apply this principle to their entrepreneurship journey.
In 2006, John Warren and John Thompson led Marines into combat in the world’s most dangerous city: Ramadi, Iraq.
