S4:E19🎙️ LIVE From Tactics to Strategy: Leadership Lessons from a Navy IW Commander

👉 From Tactics to Strategy: Leadership Lessons from a Navy IW Commander (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-tactics-strategy-leadership-lessons-navy-iw-commander-zinga-vcy2e/)
⸻
When I started out as a junior officer, the Navy trained me to act fast, think tactically, and execute flawlessly. But it wasn’t until I became a senior officer—and later, a cybersecurity executive—that I realized the mission required something deeper: strategy.
In this episode, I’ll break down what it means to shift from operator to strategist, the five strategist archetypes (King/Queen, Prince/Princess, Elder, Servant, Joker), and how faith, foresight, and humility shape strategic leadership in both the military and Silicon Valley.
This isn’t just about the Navy or tech—it’s about your leadership journey.
