With a track record of graduates that include multiple presidents, astronauts and other leaders, West Point Military Academy is considered one of the top leadership development centers in the world. But is it the individuals themselves - or the culture around them - that lead to such consistently outstanding performance over time? Mike Erwin should know as a graduate himself, having gone on to serve on three combat tours and now as Assistant Professor in Leadership at West Point. He's joined here by bestselling author Dan Coyle, whose books on culture and talent development have redefined entire industries. From one of the simplest definitions of what defines a tough culture - "a set of connected people who can do shit together" - through to tips for how to grow one of your own, this is a must-listen for leaders at any level.
