Episode 129 Leadership & Accountability with Chief Clyde Gordon15. Sept.1 Std. 26 Min.

<p>In this episode, I sit down with Chief Clyde Gordon for a wide ranging interview about his time in the fire service, including more than three decades with the Houston Fire Department. The conversation centers on the leadership lessons Chief Gordon learned the hard way, the responsibility officers have for training and accountability, and how modern tactics must adapt to midrise, townhome, and short staffed operations.</p><p><br></p><p>Chief Clyde Gordon shares personal stories from the fireground and from his life outside the job, including the loss of a firefighter that reshaped his leadership style and the impact the fire service had on a young man named Rodney who later became part of his family. It is an honest, practical conversation about standards, courage, and why doing the right thing matters more than being liked.</p><p><br></p><p>Visit The Energy Drink, Use the discount code NOZZLE TOV</p><p>to receive 20% off your order</p><p><a href="https://theenergydrink.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://theenergydrink.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Visit Industrial Protection Services for all of your fire service needs in the New Hampshire Area.</p><p><a href="https://ipp-ips.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://ipp-ips.com/</a></p>
