Echelon Front, a leadership consulting firm founded by former U.S. Navy SEALs Jocko Willink and Leif Babin, has announced a partnership with Nick Lavery, the founder of Team MACHINE. Lavery is an active-duty Green Beret within The United States Army Special Forces who is responsible for conducting critical missions such as direct action, counterinsurgency, foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare. He is also the best-selling author of Objective Secure, a guide to goal achievement that has been tested in battle.
Their shared mission is to instill leadership and resilience principles to first responders through a series of impactful events, beginning on February 15, 2024, in Worcester, Massachusetts. This collaboration between Echelon Front and Team MACHINE will feature a dynamic series of two events in two cities, starting with Echelon Front’s “Roll Call” program.
“Roll Call” is a powerful one-day training initiative that draws upon the extensive leadership experiences of Willink and Babin. The course is designed for active-duty first responders such as law enforcement, fire fighters, EMTs, military, and government personnel who work in dynamic and dangerous environments. The one-day course will provide practical insights and strategies for effective leadership in challenging environments.
The partnership was established after Nick Lavery appeared on Jocko Willink’s popular podcast “Jocko Podcast.” As military veterans, both Lavery and Willink recognized their shared dedication to teaching the fundamental principles of leadership and resilience. The synergy between Echelon Front’s expertise and Team MACHINE’s unique approach promises to create a transformative experience for first responders across the country.
“We are honored to join forces with Nick Lavery and Team MACHINE to expand our mission of empowering leaders with the tools they need to succeed,” said Jocko Willink, co-founder of Echelon Front. “Together, we aim to make a positive impact on the lives of first responders, helping them navigate challenges and lead with resilience.”
Nick Lavery, the founder of Team MACHINE, expressed his excitement about the partnership with Echelon Front. He said, “Collaborating with Echelon Front is an incredible opportunity for us to enhance our efforts in developing strong and resilient leaders. By combining our strengths, we can reach more individuals in the first responder community and equip them with the skills necessary for effective leadership.”
The two events will be held in Worcester, Massachusetts on March 15, 2024, and in Mahwah, New Jersey on April 26, 2024. These events offer an unparalleled opportunity for first responders in these regions to benefit from the expertise of Echelon Front and Team MACHINE. The leadership events by Echelon Front are valuable for anyone who needs to lead in dynamic situations.
