Say hello to our next guest, Don Gleason. Don is a Leadership Consultant and President of Achieve New Heights. He’s all about helping people find the career that energizes them and a life that fulfils them. After 42 years in military and corporate leadership positions, Don helps others find their passion in life, as many know the destination but not the path. Don’s three films share a common theme, and tend to focus on characters with internal struggles, who choose to do the right thing. From a story about a man on the run who puts others before his own freedom, to a man who had it all, then helped those less fortunate to have more, and finally, a man who has to wrestle with his own fear, if he wants justice to win, and overcome his greatest challenge. Films featured include, “Les Miserables,” “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” and “A Few Good Men.”
