Grab a copy of Mike's new book "Never Enough" here: https://celadonbooks.com/book/never-enough/  Alex sits down with former Commanding Officer of SEAL Team TWO and  current Chief Digital Transformation Officer at VMware, Mike Hayes.  As Commanding Officer of SEAL Team TWO, Mike led a two thousand–person  Special Operations Task Force in Southeastern Afghanistan. He has been  held at gunpoint and threatened with execution. He’s jumped out of a  building rigged to explode, helped amputate a teammate’s leg, and made  countless split-second life-and-death decisions. In addition to a  twenty-year career as a SEAL, Mike was a White House Fellow, served two  years as Director of Defense Policy and Strategy at the National  Security Council, and has worked directly with both Presidents George W.  Bush and Barack Obama.  In his new book Never Enough, Mike Hayes helps readers apply high-stakes  lessons about excellence, agility, and meaning across their personal  and professional lives.
