Despite the Limits
My name is Scot Storey, and I created this podcast, “Despite the Limits” to provide short conversations aimed at helping leaders grow professionally and personally. As a lifelong student of human connection, leadership, and communication, I am passionate about shaping the growth and capabilities of leaders. My personal journey in leadership development has been shaped by a career of service in the US Army’s Special Operations Forces leading numerous teams from just a few operators to organizations several thousand people strong, with the Army’s Rangers, Green Berets and Civil Affairs units in some the world’s most remote and arduous conditions. I believe in the power of a good story to shape personal connections and help people reach their full potential. That is what this podcast is all about.
Let’s have a conversation!

Despite the Limits
Where you sit, determines where you stand!
“Where you sit, determines where you stand.” This a phrase I did not really understand when I first heard it as a young staff officer. In this episode, I talk about how our backgrounds shape our perspectives.
I also spend some time talking about the importance of seeking the perspective of multiple people, perhaps most importantly the perspectives of people with whom we disagree.
I recommend you get your hands on Sebastian Junger’s book, “Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging.” His observations about where we are as a nation are eye opening.
Finally, if you want to review my thoughts on seeking the ideas of others, especially those who disagree with you check out Episode 9 of Season 2, “Understanding the Experts”.
