Mr. Robert Tucker, Jr is a retired VP at Jackson National Life and he pushes the boundaries on my leadership. He is a mentor, a friend and confidant to me in my leadership journey. He has, since the early days of our friendship, pushed me on the topic of ‘execution’ more than any other. Ideas are great but they are overrated he says. I love ideas, I have a million of them but Bob is the guy who makes me think deeper, more strategically so that one day, one of these ideas comes to life. If you are an idea person, you need a Bob in your life to help you understand the value of execution.
