In this episode, Kimberly Underwood, director of Digital News Media at SIGNAL Media, talks with Michael Weigand, chief growth officer and co-founder of Shift5, a Virginia-based company working to build a "smarter, safer and more secure world by creating resilient and mission-ready fleets." Weigand is a former U.S. Army infantry officer turned cyber operator turned entrepreneur. While in uniform, he was among the first 40 officers to stand up the cyber branch of the U.S. Army. Though now a civilian, he says his service to the nation continues, even if he's traded the war room for the board room. Learn about the flyer that was instrumental in directing the trajectory of his military and civilian careers, and his "be fearless" advice to younger leaders.
