Episode 122:Interview with Jon S. Rennie, Author of “I Have the Watch: Becoming a Leader Worth Following”

Jon is a business leader, bestselling author, speaker, and podcaster. He is the Co-Founder, President & CEO of Peak Demand Inc., a premier manufacturer of critical components for electrical utilities. He is a former U.S. Navy Nuclear Submarine Officer who made seven deployments during the end of the Cold War. Prior to starting Peak Demand, he led eight manufacturing businesses for three global companies. He is the author of two bestselling leadership books, I Have the Watch: Becoming a Leader Worth Following and All in the Same Boat: Lead Your Organization Like a Nuclear Submariner.

Jon successfully brings his unique navy leadership experience to the business world. On a submarine crew, officers and sailors work together in cramped spaces and challenging conditions to accomplish complex missions with no room for failure. Jon learned quickly that the basic underlying principles for success at sea also led to high performing teams on land.

This is such a great conversation with one of United States Navy’s premier leaders. If you’d like to learn more about Jon, please visit his website here: https://jonsrennie.com/
