Jeff Byard: Team Rubicon

As the new year begins, this episode of Without Compromise focuses on purpose, service, and what it means to step forward when others need help.

We sit down with Jeff Byard, Senior Vice President of Operations at Team Rubicon, a veteran-led humanitarian organization that mobilizes volunteers to respond to disasters and humanitarian crises.

Jeff shares lessons from a career in emergency management, including what effective leadership looks like in moments of uncertainty, how veterans and civilians find renewed purpose through service, and why showing up consistently matters more than titles or recognition.

This conversation is a reminder that the start of a new year is not just about resolutions, but about commitment to others, to community, and to doing the work when it counts.

Athletic Brewing is proud to support Team Rubicon and those who choose service without compromise.
