John S. Berry is a decorated Army Veteran and CEO of Berry Law who has built a mission-driven legal powerhouse from the ground up. With deployments to Bosnia and Iraq, Ranger School under his belt, and a career culminating as a battalion commander, John shares how military leadership forged his no-BS approach to building elite teams. As an example, John breaks down how he revamped Officer Candidate School – ditching pointless hazing for laser-focused training – and turned it into an award-winning institution. From leading troops in combat to leading lawyers in the courtroom, John talks about hiring A-players, creating a culture of accountability, and why tough love gets results. If you want to learn how to build a team that wins, this one’s for you.
