“Generals in the Making” is a gem of a leadership book and should be required reading for any early or mid-level professional. The book is an engrossing examination of how four army generals of World War II, each a major player in their own right, navigated the uncertain, rocky, and tumultuous pre-war years in their careers. In this discussion, Kevin Black speaks with author Benjamin Runkle about George Marshall, Dwight Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur, and George Patton. They dive deep into each general’s life, discussing the friction, the obstacles, and even the tragedies which could have easily prevented them from becoming the greatest generation of senior commanders in military history.
