NOTES

George Washington is most famous for leading America to victory during the American Revolution and for being the first president of the United States. One does not have those successes without being a great leader. In Washington on Leadership, learn firsthand from the father of our country about the skill, tactics, and techniques that go into great leadership. Such brilliant wisdom Washington has offered includes: "Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company." "To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace." "It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one." Whether discussing military tactics, life lessons, or knowledge from his forty-plus years of service for our country, George Washington is certainly a person that everyone should look up to as the basis for how to lead and as an expert on the finer points of taking control for the greater good
