Leadership and Success with Coach BZ

S4:E19🎙️ LIVE From Tactics to Strategy: Leadership Lessons from a Navy IW Commander with Coach BZ,  Ranked #1 LinkedIn Content Creator for #GlobalLeaders and #RiskandResilience in the U.S. (Favikon)   📅 Date: Sunday, June 29, 2025 ⏰ Time: 6:00 AM PT (San Francisco) | 9:00 AM ET (Washington, D.C.) 📍 LIVE on LinkedIn → [RSVP & Join the Discussion] 🔗 Based on my latest article: 👉 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. ⸻ 🗺️ Where are you tuning in from? Drop your city, region, or country in the comments! 💬 Got a leadership question for me?
