Honor and Integrity with Former Navy SEAL Rob Newson

Today on the Leadership Tales Podcast, I am joined by an amazing leader and former US Navy SEAL, Rob Newson. Rob’s career spans a wide range, from Special Operations military deployments, working in the White House, to recently holding a position as the VP of Strategy and Vision with the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team. Through it all, Rob has a red thread connected to the ideals of honor, integrity, and service.

Today, Rob is focused on advocacy for a growing issue—the countless number of otherwise healthy young men and women who are developing rare forms of cancer that can be linked to their military service, particularly those who served in Special Ops. After his own experience with cancer, Rob became an anti-cancer catalyst to connect others with treatment, advocacy, and community.


Leaders will be delighted to hear Rob share the roles that vulnerability and accountability have in Special Operations and how these same lessons can be applied to your own teams. You won’t want to miss this fascinating conversation on leadership and teamwork with someone as steeped in team service as Rob!
