For most people, stepping out of their comfort zone
requires more risk than they are willing to take. In Scott Kinder’s
book, The Hill, he points out that the first step in
overcoming fear is to identify it as fear, then accept it for what
it is and move past it. Scott is a natural born teacher who is
determined to assist civilians and businesses in forming
high-performance teams. He translates his skills, learned in the
U.S. Army Special Forces, to educate and empower business leaders
on how to effectively weaponize their communication skills.
