Join NAIOP South Florida for an informative Signature Speaker Series event on Wednesday, May 4 at 5 p.m. at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, located at 1 Seminole Way in Hollywood, Florida. Headlining the event this year is Jocko Willink, the Chief Executive Officer of Echelon Front, a leadership organization focused on coaching and achieving organizational victory. A retired U.S Navy SEAL, Jacko is the co-author of “Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALS Lead and Win” and host of the top-rated Jacko Podcast.

Jocko served in the military for 20 years and led SEAL Team 3, Task Unit Bruiser, the most highly decorated U.S. special operations unit of the Iraq War. When he returned from Iraq, Jacko served as officer-in-charge of training for all West Coast SEAL Teams. In this position, he developed his own leadership training method, personally instructing, and mentoring the next generation of successful SEAL leaders. Jocko is the recipient of the Silver Star, the Bronze Star, and numerous other personal and unit awards.

Today, Jocko teaches the leadership principles learned on the battlefield to help others lead and win in both business and personal pursuits. Jocko has also authored the New York Times Bestseller “Discipline Equals Freedom: Field Manual,” and the children’s book series “Way of the Warrior Kid.”

Using the lessons learned and proven in combat, Jocko helps entrepreneurs, investors, commercial real estate professionals and business executives of all backgrounds and worldviews develop the core actions and mindsets necessary to tackle issues including strategy, execution, safety and risk mitigation, mission planning, innovation, team building, and crisis management strategies and cultural transformation.
