Why overlanding and startups are like nuclear powered submarines. Kevin, your stories remind me of the operational excellence and culture in Submarines in so many ways. Confronting situations like you describe force leaders to deal with truth and suppress any ego they have - a culture built on truth over ego is as important for a startup as it is for a nuclear powered submarine! Ensuring teamwork and clear communications up and down allows for the best decisions. When "shit happens" thousands of feet underwater and thousands of miles from land, the team fixes it or "more bad things" will happen. Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to overland and/or overwater together when the border opens!
