New Book by Local Retired USAF Intelligence Officer Shares Leadership Lessons for Building High-Performing Teams

Tulsa, OK — “More Than the Mission: Leadership Lessons from My Career in Air Force Intelligence” by Chris Russell, Retired USAF Colonel and former Weapons School Intelligence Instructor, is now available on Amazon.

Drawing on 22 years of leadership in some of the Air Force’s most demanding units, Russell shares practical, hard-won insights for today’s leaders. “Leadership is a human endeavor,” Russell writes. “Hardware and resources matter, but people make the difference.”

The book explores themes of servant leadership, accountability, trust, and culture, what Russell calls “the human skills that separate successful leaders from unsuccessful ones.” Whether in business, education, or public service, his stories illuminate how high-performance cultures are deliberately built, not accidental.

In addition to his military career, Russell now serves as a leadership consultant, keynote speaker, and executive coach through The Russell Group Leadership LLC, based in the Tulsa area. He works with organizations across Oklahoma to strengthen culture, enhance communication, and develop leaders at every level.
