More Leadership Lessons: "The Guys Get Shirts"
Long time readers will recall a series of posts on the exercise of leadership at the small unit level. Yes, the emphasis of this blog has always been on military affairs, and I try to devote at least some content to leadership studies.
The military is an excellent laboratory for the development of leadership and management skills. But it is not the only one, and I'm always eager to learn from the inspiring example of great leaders from all walks of life.
Our example today--our case study, if you will, is from the music industry. It's an intimate audio clip of one of the great bandleaders of our time at the height of his motivational powers. In just a few short minutes of audio, we'll hear the Maestro expound on everything from dressing for success to attention to detail to the importance of bedrock integrity, in one of the most scintillating moral treatises since Christ delivered the Sermon on the Mount.
It's a must for any junior officer, NCO, cadet, or anyone else who wants to improve his own skills as a motivator, as a mentor, as a leader.
I'm a believer in multidisciplinary learning. So in order to get the most out of the clip, I urge you to first get ready to follow along in this self-instructional guide.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the legendary Mr. Paul Anka.
