The Jedburgh Podcast empowers leaders to achieve success on their journey to transform themselves and their organizations. Creator, Host and Special Forces Green Beret Fran Racioppi interviews the world’s most prominent visionaries, drivers of change, and those dedicated to winning.

Each episode is an in-depth discussion with trailblazers who’ve earned success through a dedication to talent development, preparation, introspection, and the drive to get things done. Our conversation will empower listeners to define success and operate at an elite level, regardless of the task at hand.

In May 1943 the Allied Forces determined a new type of leader was required to win World War II. Operation Jedburgh parachuted three-man teams deep behind enemy lines to win no matter the challenge. Jedburghs lived by the mantra “how you prepare today, determines success tomorrow.” Today's leaders are no different.

Fran speaks with leaders in business, athletics, academics, and public service about their personal leadership stories of success, failure, and the road to continuous improvement. Our discussions focus on the character traits of elite performance used by Special Operations Forces to recruit, assess, select and retain elite performers. Through this lens, we show listeners that success in any field must be earned every day.

We strive for each listener to take valuable lessons learned and concrete action steps to improve themselves, their teams, and their organizations. Although developed and used by US Special Operations Forces, these characteristics are inherently applicable to building resilient and successful organizations in any sector or industry, as well as in the betterment of our personal and professional lives.

The Nine Characteristics of Elite Performance:

-Drive: Growth mindset, be better than yesterday, continuous self-improvement

-Resiliency: Perseverance in the face of challenges

-Adaptability: Adjust one’s behavior to the situation

-Humility: Recognize that you do not have all the answers; a willing learner maintains accurate self-awareness

-Integrity: Understand what is legal and correct and align actions and words to both

-Effective Intelligence: apply one’s experience and knowledge to the situation

-Team Ability: Prioritize organizational needs ahead of oneself, work as a cohesive unit

-Curiosity: Exploring the unknown, questioning the status quo in pursuit of better

-Emotional Strength: Emotional control in stressful situations brings calm to chaos
