When former Yale University professor William Deresiewicz delivered a lecture at the United States Military Academy at West Point in 2009, he never anticipated the response it would generate.

The best explanation of what is wrong with our so called leaders today.
Should be required reading for every bureaucrat in government and business.
Short and to the point. Leadership is a subject that needs to be re-examined in our schools and Military institutions. And this lecture is a good place to start.
An interesting review of the challenges presented to military officers in performance of their duties. Knowledge of your own standards of performance is presented clearly. Recommended for all persons responsible for performance in an organization.
