“Grow where you’re planted.”

This week’s guest in the Disaster Tough Podcast has seen this statement come to fruition in his professional journey. 

Brian was in the military for more than 20 years before retiring in 2005. His next mission took him to the University of Tennessee in Knoxville where he started as the Director of Special Events. 

Brian moved over to the school’s Office of Emergency Management to fill the void left by his military service, where he now serves as the Director.

In this episode, Brian gives leadership advice on how to lead such a vital department on such a large campus.

He also discusses the importance of being professionally open-minded, humble, and teachable.
