In this episode of Quiet Readiness, David Burnell speaks with former African Special Forces instructor and executive coach David Fabricius about the famous “sheep, sheepdog, and wolf” concept popularized by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman.
But Fabricius offers a deeper perspective:
Sometimes it takes a wolf to stop a wolf.
Drawing from his upbringing in Africa, his military service, and decades of international experience, Fabricius explains the role of the benevolent wolf — individuals capable of violence, but guided by discipline, character, and moral responsibility.
The conversation explores:
• why violence sometimes must confront violence• the psychology of predators and protectors• lessons from South Africa’s political transformation• the importance of capability and preparedness• why freedom must be actively protected
In an increasingly unstable world, the ability to protect oneself and others may be more important than ever.
