084_Dave Cooper: The Map That Wasn't

Dave Cooper returns to the Swamp to explore his Substack post “The Map That Wasn’t.” Dave's post caught my attention because he explores the real challenges the United States government faces as a result of going to war with Iran. Dave is uniquely qualified to comment on this topic. He brings over 20 years of service as a US Navy Seal that is followed up with two Master’s Degrees that focus on complexity theory and complex, adaptive systems. How he sees and speaks to the unfolding conflict offers a perspective most of us do not have. He then offers some ideas and moves that each of us could use to more effectively address the complex challenges we face in our lives and work.  Dave’s Links The Map That Wasn’t Substack March 16, 2026 The Leader Is Not The Engine Substack March 25, 2026 Dave’s First Podcast Visit to the Swamp May 9, 2022 Dave’s Medium Page Contact Dave Thanks for listening.
