Dive into the disciplined yet deeply human world of values-based leadership with Sam Pepin and guest David Nordel, retired U.S. Air Force Command Chief Master Sergeant, author, and founder of Max Fab Consulting. With decades of service, including leading teams in high-pressure environments worldwide, David brings a unique blend of strategic clarity, resilience, and people-first leadership to every mission—both in uniform and beyond.
In this episode, David shares the lessons learned from over 30 years in the military: how to lead with integrity, build cohesive teams under extreme pressure, and apply service-driven principles to business and community leadership. From crisis management to mentorship, his approach bridges the gap between military precision and compassionate leadership in civilian life.
This is an essential listen for leaders seeking a grounded framework for decision-making, influence, and building trust—rooted in honor, discipline, and service.
