Today, Command Chief Master Sergeant Daniel Guzman joined me for a 90-minute podcast. It’s my 32nd birthday which means it’s been exactly one year since I posted my first podcast. Chief Guzman has been the Command Chief at Fairchild Air Force Base for almost 18 months and is set to be the Command Chief at Elmendorf this Summer. He currently has 25 years in active duty and we talk about some of the lessons and experiences he’s gained in those years. Chief values being available for Airmen and being the voice for Airmen during meetings with senior leadership. He pointed out that we can’t assume everyone has a mentor or coach and we need to coach those people. We talk about how he worked 12+ hours at Lakenheath and burnt himself out as a Senior Master Sergeant and after a PCS to Langley he realized he was the only one working past 1700 and that he needed to rearrange his priorities. He suggested I read the book Go-Giver and that book highlighted that the most successful people are willing to share their secrets with others, I try to get Chief Guzman to share as many of those secrets as I can within these 90 minutes.
