Leading 4 Life "Stories"
I am Bob Judson and I spent over 34 years in the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom as a fast-jet pilot and then eventually as a senior leader, retiring from the military in 2015 as an Air Vice-Marshal (2* General). I subsequently transitioned to the corporate world as a consultant at Deloitte, but in 2019 I stepped away from all that and co-founded Leading 4 Life.
I am passionate about helping to develop the leadership skills of individuals and teams and that is what this podcast is all about. You will hear from me, and from a wide range of special guests, many of whom have had incredible leadership journeys and risen to the most senior level of their governments, militaries and corporations. The focus won't only be on success; there is also much to be learned from the failures along the way!
Thank you for listening!

Leading 4 Life "Stories"
E42 - Personal Stories: The Joy of Flying - Part 2!
I'd love to hear from you; feel free to send me a Text Message
Back in Episode 33 I started giving a full description of some of the aspects of military flying that dominated the flying part of my RAF career. As I got into the episode I realised that I had rather more to say about this than I originally thought and so I didn't get through all the things that I originally planned to cover.
This episode is consequently the next chapter of very flying specific personal stories, and I talk in some detail about aspects of the tactical employment of military aircraft, including the use of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons and air combat training.
With apologies to some, I suspect this episode will be very much marmite (i.e. you will either love it or you will hate it), so if details about flying operations are not your thing, this might not be one for you, although I'd love to convert you to being a big fan of flying stories obviously!!
All feedback welcome, especially from those who have direct experience in the RAF or other militaries.
