Courage–A Visit With Gus Lee
20th October, 2009 by Rich Dixon - 1 Comment
If you want to be an effective leader, you must respect everyone unconditionally. You don’t have to like everyone, you won’t admire everyone, and you certainly can’t trust everyone. But you can regard everyone with unconditional positive respect. Gus Lee
Gus Lee is a nationally recognized leadership expert. Gus is Chair of Character and Ethics at West Point, and his personal mentor is Norman Schwarzkopf. He’s the best-selling author of Courage: The Backbone Of Leadership. He’s a man of deep faith and great courage who lives an intentional life of passion, love, and devotion to others.
In this video discussion, Gus talks to a group of kids about his personal journey. It’s an amazing, vulnerable, inspiring story.
The video is about thirty-eight mnutes long, so I’ll understand if you don’t have time right now. But it’s worth marking and coming back when you have time. Enjoy, and be encouraged. With God, there’s always hope!
The Gus Lee video will open in a new window.
