Leif Babin is a former U.S. Navy SEAL officer, best-selling author, leadership instructor and co-founder of Echelon Front. He served 13 years in the U.S. Navy, nine of those in the SEAL Teams. Deployed three times to Iraq, Leif learned critical leadership lessons under fire as a SEAL platoon commander with Jocko Willink and Task Unit Bruiser in the Battle of Ramadi in 2006.
