On this episode I am joined by the one and only Kris Blume, and it was a heavy dose of leadership discussion!

We talked about what he means when he says “Carry the Fire” and “Serve the Work,” along with “The Quiet Damage of Destructive Leadership” and how “Burnout Isn’t Just the Job, It’s Leadership.” We also dove into “Data vs. Culture: What Actually Changes Behavior?” And "The Cost of Silence"

As usual, we only got to a fraction of the topics. The questions from the audience came fast and often.

Joined on this episode by the one and only Dave Dubowski and it was one for the ages.

We plan to talk about his journey through the fire service and how trajectory is something he has been thinking about. We dive into what he coined “5 career calls over the past 5 years.” His photography and buffing over the past 42 years…of course talking to Dubowski, it would be a party foul to not discuss the FOOLS and the upcoming FOOLS convention in St. Louis this year. And as always with the Weekly Scrap, the audience jumped in with their questions and we went wherever the questions took us. Which is what makes the Scrap the Scrap!!!

Enjoy the show!

Joined on this episode by one of my favorite Stone brothers…Chief Shannon Stone.

I was fired up for this conversation and the topics we planned to dig into. I’ve taken a lot of notes over the years sitting in on this man’s lectures.
Leadership, developing the ideal promotional process to put the right people in the right seats and building cultures to support our mission. What it looks like to promote up through the ranks, and how perspective changes when you start looking back over your career. And as always, the audience jump in with their questions and took over the conversation and it was awesome!

Enjoy the show!
