Shinseki's Farewell Address: WOW
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Sat Dec-06-08 08:20 PM by Perky
Upon leaving his post in June 2003, Shinseki in his farewell speech sternly warned against arrogance in leadership.

''You must love those you lead before you can be an effective leader,'' he said. ''You can certainly command without that sense of commitment, but you cannot lead without it. And without leadership, command is a hollow experience, a vacuum often filled with mistrust and arrogance.''
