Sort of mind blown. As a staff lackey, I always believed the brief as solely for the executive in the room (hence executive decision briefs). I never sought to address anyone else in the room except the commander. In fact, I thought it was a waste of everyone else's time to be at those decision briefs because the primary audience was suppose to be the decision-making commander. Overall, I'm not sure if I agree with the idea of "how strong leaders use" vs "weak leaders use" concept. In contrast, I've always felt strong leaders came to a brief or a meeting prepared - ready to ask challenging questions while weak ones stared blankly or spent the time trying to wrap their heads around the basic concepts of the brief. Admittedly, I don't share the author's extensive experience, so I guess I have something new to try at work today.
I love how blunt and straightforward this guy is, I wish civilians were this way too, straight to the point the facts presented in a understandable way, great video
Back when I was AD... I used to just LUUUUV those stupid but inevitable meetings "they" (wouldn't want to offend anyone) would dream up. They were usually to discuss an upcoming meeting, or to talk about the importance of creases and shiny boots in a combat zone.
While deployed even our lowest ranks were given a green book to take notes on anything that was info to relay to sergeants or higher. Our BUB meetings went smooth after we addressed communication hiccups. Take notes! Great video, sir!
I just learned a new US Army term that I don’t recall from my time as an Army officer a million years ago: due-out! I wonder when that neologism entered the Army’s lexicon and if the other services also use it.
I'm not aiming for SF, but for Officer university amd your vids really motivate me. I still have 5 years and I hope, that in that time I will make myself a man out of shit, I'm now
Thanks for the information!But i have an question.Can you use meetings for both ways.I mean both giving inforamtion to your team and looking good in front of your boss.Just saying.(Sorry if my english is not fluent i am trying my best to be as much understandable as possible).
Could you do a life in a special forces officer like what you would do? I always find it hard to find information on this specific topic. There is a lot of information on what it seems like the enlisted do but I never hear about what the officers do, are they out in the field? are they just stuck at a desk? do they lead an ODA? is it similar to conventional company commanders?
This video should be watched at least twice by everyone working in the financial sector or corporate world since 50 % of meetings there seem to be useless. Ive seen so many people waste their time in useless meetings.
Thank you for your videos . I look up to you alot man . If your looking for your next video idea doing a video of the impact of special operations on your family would be greatly appreciated.
What if I am completely alone am self admittedly mentally ill and have so much paranoia that is borderline but not quite at a clinical level and fear retaliation as a result of success. Even with the objectivity and insight that sometimes my fears are well founded and sometimes their not at that ?

That's my point. A strong leader already knows the status of their team / unit / company. The goal is to coordinate and direct....

what a perfect time for this upload, I'm literally hosting a meeting soon, and all over on what to ask, what to show, etc.
Thanks. Make sure it isn't a waste of time.
@@LifeisaSpecialOperation I'll do my best.

Briefings onboard an SSN were always short and effective during deployments. I hated my life when I wasn’t deployed.
should send this to my entire company orgnazation!!!
Useful bro!

Dude what industry is your current job? Considering your past experience as an sf officer you must be killing it
Great video
a well informed force is a well prepared force .... "WELL-VERSED"...
good info....I learned alot from this....thanks!
Greeting Sir,
Could you do a video about STOs or SF Pilots? Thank you in advance, look forward to keep learning from your content.
Yo bro do you have a video on how to make myself mentally strong?
This should be good
What if a weak leader uses this video info to cover-up there incompetence? Now they'll just have their staff state what's going on.
And this the paradox begins
Thus
Termination meeting on the day they cremated my father
I got a paypal
Bring your laptop so you look like you're taking notes. If something important is actually passed, take notes for real.
This idea came up because he was in a stupid meeting.
WRITE THIS DOWN
I'm not aiming for SF, but for Officer university amd your vids really motivate me. I still have 5 years and I hope, that in that time I will make myself a man out of shit, I'm now

A Brief is to inform. But a Meeting is to Coordinate.
