  Yadi Caro in Oscar Mike Radio 28.07.2026 42p

  Replay from interview for Oscar Mike Radio with Travis Partington.  To watch the interview go to https://youtu.be/HD5ivXYACdQ?si=rZhKLFf5DLFuCWKi  From the original episode:  "In this episode of Oscar Mike Radio, I sat down with YadiCaro, a communications expert with nearly 18 years of experience supporting U.S. military organizations around the world. Yadi shared powerful insights into what truly makes teams successful, from creating psychological safety toestablishing clear roles and building around a shared mission. We talked about her book, Hardcore Soft Skills, and the four key stages that drive strong communication and leadership: Connect, Communicate, Collaborate, and Create. What I appreciated most was how practicaland relatable these ideas are, not just in military or corporate environments, but in everyday life as well. Yadi also discussed the importance of cross-culturalcommunication, what separates good leaders from great ones, and how the same principles that strengthen teams can also make us better parents, mentors, and community members. One of the biggest takeaways for me was her reminder that soft skills are not "soft" at all. They require intentional effort, consistent practice, and self-awareness, especially as artificial intelligence continues to automate more technical tasks. This conversation is packed with insight for leaders,veterans, professionals, and anyone looking to improve how they connect and communicate with others."  Get a copy of the book Hardcore Soft Skills: A Guide to Work With Humans.
