Key takeaways

• During his time as a Navy SEAL and FBI Agent, Errol designed a five-step process for effective leadership and tested it in the most high-stakes, high-stress environments possible
  
• Military leadership differs from FBI leadership. In the military, orders must be executed, even if you have doubts. In the FBI, special agents have a tremendous amount of autonomy
  
• Often, it doesn't matter what you say but how you say it. And you can make someone take your side simply by adopting a convincing attitude
  
• In every action that you take, there is a trigger that generates emotion. Then you fall back on learned behaviors based on that emotion you are probably unaware of and act in some manner. If you can be aware of each of those elements, you will start making better and more conscious decisions. Next, you must reflect if your decision was a success or failure to adjust it in the future
  
• Conscious decision-making is the cornerstone of effective leadership

Quotes

• “Navy SEAL is the basis for most of my leadership philosophy. It's where I saw a lot of great and poor leadership”
  
• “I had the ability and courage to speak out, have my voice heard, and stand up for things I thought were wrong”
  
• “So that is the end game on where my process is. Conscious decision-making so you can repeat successes, train on that thought or problem-solving, find problems and where they occurred, and adjust”
