- A unit – be it military, athletic, business, political, or familial takes on and reflects the personality of the commander, the coach, the boss, the parent, THE LEADER.
- A leader must set the example in all areas. You cannot be appointed a “leader,” You must prove yourself to be such through your actions, demeanor, appearance, attitude and decisions. Leaders at all levels must know their stuff, be dead honest, have unquestioned personal integrity, set the example, and treat their people “fair and square,”
- None of us starts out as a General or the CEO of a corporation. And, not all of us are born leaders. However, we all do have the resources available to become great leaders. Whether you are a CEO or a college freshman, there is always more to learn and goals to be achieved. Every day, you have the opportunity to do a better job, advance yourself and lead others in a way that will lead your team to success.
Leadership and Good Leaders
In early 2021 in Hal Moore’s files, I found a detailed initial outline of what would later grow into the “Hal Moore on Leadership” book. This series of posts pulls from that outline – mostly short paragraphs or bullets.
For more detail, check out the book (click on the image to go to Amazon). The focus of Moore’s life after retirement from the military was on helping and mentoring others along the path to becoming great leaders.
