VOLUME 37
August 2025​
​
In this issue, Chief Randy R. Bruegman (Ret.) shares the powerful story of Bill Crawford, a humble U.S. Air Force Academy janitor whose quiet presence and integrity left an indelible mark on future leaders — long before they knew he was a Medal of Honor recipient. It’s a timeless reminder that true leadership isn’t about titles or the spotlight, but about character, humility, and daily example.
VOLUME 06
JANUARY 2023
​
This month, Chief Bruegman talks about the importance of adaptability in your organizations and how without it, you likely won’t survive. In addition, he explores the idea of “A New Industrial Revolution” and how it will require us as leaders rethink the ways we’ve led in the past.
VOLUME 02
SEPTEMBER 2022
​
In this month's newsletter, we look at the importance of finding your rhythm in leadership and how you can avoid complacency and intentionally continue to develop yourself as a leadership. Also, check out the end of each volume for a recommend reading list, because readers are leader.
