"It is people, not things, who nurture our souls." Character is the root of leadership. A leader of character must establish a culture of trust. A leader grows trust by trusting others first, providing a vision, displaying integrity, leading by example, and sincerely caring about others. A leader must have more than values and principles. Join us for a fresh look at Character, Competence, and Resilience with author General John Gronski (recently retired) for insights into his forthcoming book, Iron Sharpened Leadership, Fidelis Publishing/Oley North.
