In this episode of Firefighter Leadership, we address the crucial issue of what happens when a leader gets tired. Fatigue can significantly impact safety, crew performance, and trust. 

We'll explore common mistakes exhausted leaders make, such as pushing through exhaustion without speaking up, skipping crucial safety checks, losing awareness of their team's mental state, making rash decisions, and withdrawing when needed most. Listen in as we provide actionable insights and strategies to manage fatigue and maintain effective leadership. 

Remember, leadership doesn't stop when you're running on empty. Stay sharp, stay safe, and keep leading from the front.
