Jon Rennie is a former US Navy submarine officer, as well as a business leader, podcast host, and author.
We met on Twitter, where I saw his book “All In the Same Boat” about his time aboard the USS Tennessee and what it taught him about life and business.
I rarely read business books, but I thought I’d give his a try.
As a lover of sailing, his sea stories stirred my heart, and I thought my audience might enjoy them too.
In our conversation we discussed:
- His background, and some formative moments aboard the Tennessee
- How he raised his boys to become successful men
- The three acts of his life: from Naval officer, to business leader, to author
- The process of writing his trilogy of books about submarine and business life
- What it was like serving during the Cold War
- The accuracies and inaccuracies of the hit submarine films The Hunt for Red October, and Crimson Tide
Jon and I had one of my most fun conversations yet. He went on his own Hero’s Journey beneath the waves and brought back wisdom for all of us.
