Will Dotson walked us through how he went from the military to building a company that’s obsessed with modernizing well pads, tightening up workflows, and giving clients the kind of communication they wish every vendor had. He opened up about the mentors who shaped him, the reality of working in OT (equal parts chaos and reward), and why RegretShield puts such a big emphasis on doing things the right way instead of the loud way. It’s a conversation full of stories, lessons learned, and the mindset that’s helping his team carve out something genuinely different in the OT world.Click here to watch a video of this episode.00:00 - Intro00:59 - Who is Will Dotson06:06 - Track & Field Career14:57 - Joining the Navy Experience18:04 - WorldCom Insights22:19 - Career After WorldCom23:31 - Qualities of a Good Project Manager28:30 - Starting Regatta Solutions Journey33:20 - Learning from Mistakes35:44 - Will's Early Projects Overview38:24 - What is RegretShield41:40 - Unique Aspects of RegretShield46:46 - Future Vision for RegretShield48:50 - Where to Find Will Dodson49:50 - Outrohttps://twitter.com/collide_iohttps://www.tiktok.com/@collide.iohttps://www.facebook.com/collide.iohttps://www.instagram.com/collide.iohttps://www.youtube.com/@collide_iohttps://bsky.app/profile/digitalwildcatters.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/collide-digital-wildcatters","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hYSHYQs64Onl2QuGTTUmlexIUz97CGUbWPpPWyISBxc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZWEx/Y2FkN2E5MTdiMjJk/NTNlOTU0ODliZTEw/NWVlMy5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
