A Masterclass on Leadership | Stanley McChrystal | Knowledge Project 132

Retired United States Army General Stanley McChrystal calls on more than three decades of military experience to discuss the fundamental tenets of leadership, and practical advice for taking calculated risks and making important decisions. A veteran of four U.S. wars in the Middle East, McChrystal was a four-star general best known for his command of Joint Special Operations Command from 2003-08, when he oversaw special operations in both Iraq and Afghanistan. His troops were responsible for both the capture of Saddam Hussein in 2003 and the 2006 death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq. 00:00 - Intro 01:13 - What is risk? 02:29 - Threats vs. vulnerabilities 05:31 - Practical steps to detecting and avoiding threats 07:07 - Reflecting on 9/11 and information contexts 10:05 - Is society becoming more risk averse? 13:53 - Short term vs. long term politicians and military leaders 19:28 - How to make decisions under uncertainty 21:11 - Shane’s heuristic for decision making 21:28 - Stanley’s heuristic for decision making 25:56 - Decision making in moral dilemma's 28:27 - Commander’s intent 29:56 - Practical example of Map is Not the Territory 37:17 - Should politician’s spend time in war zones? 38:54 - The risk of NOT making a decision 41:03 - How organizations incentives for good decisions are awful 43:47 - How Stanley deals with stress 47:36 - How military leadership is easier than civilian leadership 50:12 - How to teach mental toughness 52:33 - What Stanley has learned from studying history 55:35 - History books that have influenced Stanley 57:19 - How to learn from someone who isn’t perfect 01:01:04 - The effects of changing history 01:03:15 - How to teach someone self-discipline 01:06:32 - How to assess the judgement of someone else 01:09:36 - Why are military budgets skewed to physical equipment and not cyber 01:13:39 - How Stanley would allocate the military budget today 01:14:53 - Stanley’s “One-Meal-a-Day” and the impact it had on others 01:16:43 - Misperception of being introverted 01:17:58 - How Stanley defines success -- OUR FREE NEWSLETTER: https://fs.blog/newsletter/ OUR COURSES:   📝 Decision Making & Parenting: https://fs.blog/courses-fs/ 📈  OUR MOST POPULAR INTERVIEWS 🎬  The Full Story of Naval Ravikant:    • The Angel Philosopher Naval Ravikant on Re...   🎬  Bill Ackman - Getting Back Up:    • Bill Ackman: Dealing with Haters, My Large...   🎬  Secrets to Healthy Relationships with Esther Perel:    • Secrets to Healthy Relationships | Esther ...   🎙 Listen to the show  iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
