In moments of uncertainty, leadership is revealed.

Former U.S. Sec Def Mark Esper joins Dov Seidman for a conversation about the principles that guide leaders through crisis, complexity, and change. Reflecting on his experiences leading one of the world's largest institutions during the pandemic and social unrest, Esper shares lessons on integrity, trust, resilience, and service.

Together, they explore how leaders can remain faithful to their values when it's inconvenient, empower others through trust and accountability, and create cultures where character scales beyond the individual. This is a conversation about what endures when circumstances are constantly changing—and why moral leadership remains essential to building a future where we rise together.
