About this audiobook
Discover the ten principles that every aspiring leader should learn, straight from the nation’s most powerful leadership lab.
Major General Joseph P. Franklin (ret.) believes almost everything that he is as an adult can be traced back to his days at West Point, where he was not only a cadet but an instructor, football coach, and eventually Commandant of Cadets. U.S. Military Academy graduates are found at the highest levels in every walk of life: military, education, business, medicine, law, and government. However, you don't have to graduate from the U.S. Military Academy to embrace its ideals or to benefit from the wisdom that is taught there.
In Building Leaders the West Point Way, Franklin shares leadership principles including:
- Duty,
- Honor,
- Faith,
- Courage,
- Perseverance,
- And more
Building Leaders the West Point Way uses examples drawn from Major Franklin’s personal experience to illustrate key principles of leadership that are within grasp of everyone. This is simple and easy-to-understand resource will help anyone become a better leader.
