My guest this week is Rich Diviney, a retired US Navy Commander and former Navy SEAL, who, over his illustrious career, has become a thought leader in optimal performance, authoring the influential book "The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance".

Rich's journey emphasizes the critical role of soft skills and character traits in achieving excellence. Drawing from systems theory, he underscores that a team’s success hinges on the interactions between its members rather than their individual prowess.

With a mission to translate military-won insights into the business world, Rich advocates for the clear articulation and teaching of key performance attributes.

We discuss:

When he knew he was going to survive Hell Week
As a Navy Commander, the attributes he most values for high performance
How to develop attributes
What he misses most about the Navy
Why skills training is going to become less relevant
