Boiling Point Podcast

Ed Staniowski is a former NHL goalie, playing from 1975-1985, and a former Lieutenant Colonel of the Canadian Armed Forces. He joins this episode of the Boiling Point to discuss the tenets of leadership he's come to value over the years, both in the Armed Forces and the NHL. From coaches to drill sergeants to fellow players and soldiers, Ed speaks to the necessity of humility in a leader, the importance of facing healthy adversity in overcoming obstacles as a team, and the way great leaders generate trust in their followers. Nowadays, Ed is part of a campaign memorializing the Regina Rifles, a regiment which landed at Juno Beach during WWII. The campaign is creating a proper monument for the Rifles at Courseulles-sur-Mer in France, where they landed on D-Day, and the goal is to have it erected on June 6th, 2024- the 80th anniversary of D-Day. Ed also speaks to the importance of this monument, and of honoring the sacrifices made. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
