Motivation on the Run

Many probably have already seen this short video on leadership, but I had to point everyone else to it also. Michael Hyatt, From Where I Sit, had a conversation on an airplane with an Army Captain that turned to LTG Harold Moore and leadership. The article had the video (embedded here) and much more.

Watch the video, head over to Michael’s website and read the “Rest of the Story.”

From Where I Sit: Leadership Under Fire

In the conversation, I told him that I was an admirer of Lieutenant General Harold G. Moore. He was most famous as the Lieutenant Colonel in command of 1st Battalion, U.S. 7th Calvary Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 1st Calvary Division at the Battle of la Drang on November 14–16, 1965, in Vietnam.

Moore wrote a famous book, We Were Soldiers Once … and Young that inspired Mel Gibson to make and star in the movie, We Were Soldiers. It’s one of my top ten favorite movies of all time.
