Our host Ryan Castle sits down with Scott Anderson, former US Army Major and former UN humanitarian leader, now COO at Real Property Management Express in Sioux Falls.
Scott’s career spans 21 years in the Army, tours in Afghanistan, foreign military sales in Saudi Arabia, and nearly a decade in humanitarian operations across Gaza and Jerusalem. He shares what leadership looks like when the stakes are real and the environment is unpredictable. We dig into three leadership anchors Scott relies on: know yourself (authenticity and consistency beat charisma), drown out the noise (focus on the few inputs that drive outcomes), and hire slow, fire fast (protecting culture and momentum).
If you’re leading in a fast-moving business or managing a team under pressure, this episode offers practical lessons you can use immediately.
