Justin, Jocko's company is Echelon front . They have an online academy with many free classes. There are many ways to introduce the concept of leadership training to an organization. It can be as little as sharing a video. I recommend getting a few people who are willing to read a book and discuss it. While Jocko's books are simple and direct, you can see his principles in many other leadership books. The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni align almost perfect. In one of my organizations the team was encouraged to read the 5 dysfunctions book or watch the hour long video version. That was a great way to introduce many leadership concepts. There are many other authors, Simon Sinek, John Wooden, Dale Carnegie, and many more. Hope you find your way back to this message. Good luck on influencing.

Great question. This is most likely address in Leadership Stradegy and Tactics. It is good to convey that there are right and wrong ways to critique their supervisor. First, time and place, not publicly or during other activities. It should only be to people who would have some reason to know or an ability to change it. For dealing with complaints about supervisors, it is good to help the complaining employee to understand the company requirements of their supervisor and the company requirements of them. Sometimes the task assigned to the employee only makes sense to the requirements of the supervisor. Often the employee understanding what the supervisor needs to provide up to leadership can provide context. Sometimes knowing what is actually delivered can reduce what the employee has to produce for their supervisor. The interaction with the supervisor can be less directed at a single employee if you first check with more of their subordinates. This might be seen as an over step to go and talk directly to his team. Talking directly to the supervisor is probably a better path. The real question is "Is the complaint valid and significant?" It might be valid that your supervisor doesn't understand what I am doing. He has not done my job. He cannot tell me what I am doing right or wrong. Is it significant? Does it prevent completion of work, cause issues with the customer, or other waste of time and resources. Jocko would say "Build the relationship". The relationship with the supervisor. The relationship with the employee. And the relationship between the supervisor and the employee. When you compare the complaint about this supervisor to the feedback from other employees or other supervisors? That should show if the question is specific to the employee, the supervisor, those two, or if it is wide spread. Once you know where the problem is isolated, look at the mindset or the perspective of the complaint. Try to quantify it, give it dimensions, and find its limits. This evaluation can help detach and give perspective. If the complaint is about a weekly meeting, it is only 2 hours of your week. Would preparation before meeting make it more tolerable? Shorter?
Generally speaking, these issues tend to be caused by both parties. Psychologically, individuals are most attuned to find their weakness less acceptable in others. Two people looking for the other to feed their ego. Two procrastinators waiting for the other to get the task done. They might need a common enemy to align their perspective or priorities. Once they get going in the right direction, you pull back the curtain and tell them what game you were playing to fix the problem that previously existed.

Ben is not as plugged into the social media. There is always the option of sending a note to the publisher.
If I find Mr. Milligan lurking on the interwebs, I will try to put it here.

He has spoke about this. It would put his wife in the spot light, which I don't believe she desires. He might consider a cabinet position once his kids are all out of the house. These types of federal positions involve a lot of "we could never do that" and then a year and a half later it is how you do it. We would need to get a few of the Admirals to run for office, and probably win, and force Jocko into VP or cabinet position. Dan Crenshaw is a more likely option. Then some of these other guys who have more vertical drive like "Good Deal" Dave Burke, Jonny Kim.

There are a handful of unflavored whey's. I typically drink vanilla because it mixes with the silly things I drink. I buy stuff I want to drink, so it has sugar or sweetener in it.

So to gain weight, the best way to add to your lifts is the Starting Strength Novice Progression. I recommend their YouTube page as a place to start. Getting you squat, deadlift, overhead press, bench, and clean will help with everything. The hard part of this is just that you need a barbell, squat rack, and some weights.

What do you mean by Working out isn't enough? What is the thing that you are wanting or working toward? All the clues point to you are a Beachbody person but you have a specific strength/body/fitness goal.

This is so person and goal specific. If you are trying to gain weight, carbs are helpful. If you are trying to get stronger you can do it either way, but carbs tend to speed up the progress. This always starts with why are you eating low carb? Body fat, insulin management, even energy, seizure prevention. HIIT training is intended to drain your glycogen, reduce bodyfat and increase lean body mass. If you like HIIT, eat carbs. If you hate HIIT and want to reduce bodyfat and increase lead body mass, low carb is an option.

To reach out to Jocko, info@echelonfront.com
The answers Jocko has given on this topic: 1. Motivation is fleeting. Discipline is lasting. 2. You build confidence by doing hard things together. Jocko knows this by experience. Others will talk about science and cortisol. If I was going to point in a direction, I would look to train something that the team needs to improve at. Big or small. Fitness, endurance, strength, individual skill, team/unit skill, or something like medical triage. Make it a game, competition, measure performance. All application specific. Maybe it is even less job specific, like parenting, marriages, relationships. Improving in one area of life is often makes a big improvement overall.
Good Luck
