Description

Reflecting on your time at The Citadel, how do you believe the institution's emphasis on discipline and honor has influenced your leadership style and decision-making throughout your military career?
What were some of the key leadership challenges you encountered while commanding 1st Tank Battalion and how have these experiences shaped your leadership approach and growth as a military leader?
As a graduate of The Citadel, how do you perceive the institution's role in shaping future leaders,  particularly in instilling values such as discipline, integrity, and service?  Don't want to restrict this to just the military – our young Alumni are in high demand and I have some theories why
Considering our shared alma mater at The Citadel, how do you assess the institution's adaptation or consistency in upholding its values and training methods over the years, and how has this impacted the development of military leaders?  I will focus my response on the character crisis in this country and how The Citadel develops character as the cure.
Your Book: Marine Maxims: Turning Leadership Principles into Practice (Scarlet & Gold Professional Library) .  
Could you share what inspired you to publish a book and how did it come about? Your book has 50 lessons about turning principles into practice, any of those resonate within the Corps of cadets?
