Your Leadership Legacy: LTC Oak McCulloch on Servant Leadership, Trust, and Building Leaders for Tomorrow

Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Oakland “Oak” McCulloch is back with us today, and I couldn’t be happier to welcome him back to Your Partner In Success Radio. 

Oak served our country for more than 23 years in the U.S. Army, holding leadership positions at every level—from training young recruits to commanding soldiers in the field and advising senior leaders. His career gave him not only a wealth of experience but also a deep belief in servant leadership: that leadership is never about you—it’s about the people you serve.

Since retiring from the Army, Oak has carried that mission forward. He’s become a sought-after speaker and mentor, traveling across the country to teach leaders how to build trust, empower their teams, and leave a lasting impact. He captured these lessons in his book, 'Your Leadership Legacy: Becoming the Leader You Were Meant to Be', which blends personal stories with practical, timeless wisdom.

What I appreciate most about Oak is how approachable he makes these lessons. He doesn’t just talk about leadership in theory—he shares the real, sometimes tough moments that shaped his perspective, and he does it with honesty, humor, and heart.
