As detailed extensively in my published works and presentations, leadership is critical to America.
Leadership has been addressed, as recently as last week, in my Feb. 10 article for the Epoch Times titled “America’s Hope: Leadership, Vigilance, Collaboration.”
It was argued that leadership is the solution to America’s challenges.
Before I continue with some personal insights on the personality of American Leadership, allow me to stress the necessity of cultivating leadership qualities throughout all of society. This includes our young people, the future of the nation.
The youth of America deserve our unwavering efforts, dedication, and good example. The power to influence begins in the family, continues in the schools, and expresses itself throughout every level of society. Our families, schools, communities, workplaces, houses of worship, and government must be dedicated to character.
All who are privileged to be in roles of leadership must remember the eyes of the nation are upon them. Leadership is more than a privilege. It is a responsibility that demands the highest expression of character that is driven by respect, ethics, and dignity.
Ethics is critical to the nation and character education initiatives must be front and center in all of our educational communities.
Character, or the lack thereof, is the very heartbeat of the individual, and the nation. It is the essence of leadership and the antidote for remedying deficiencies throughout society.
Currently, America is under siege with divisive issues. These issues include immigration, civil rights, national security, violence prevention, racism, police-community relations, poverty, unemployment, education, and discrimination. A crisis of leadership compounds these issues.
America must ignite an ethical renaissance through all in privileged positions of leadership. This renaissance can only be ignited and sustained by the fire of character. It must be ignited throughout every facet of society.
Character must also be inspirited in every home, without compromise, from the inner city to the White House.
When each and every person in America realizes that they have the responsibility to exemplify character, we will be on the path to an ethical renaissance.
Personality of Leadership: Practical Tips
America is continually scorched with headlines illuminating a crisis of leadership throughout every level of society.
Individuals with privileged responsibilities throughout society, from the inner city to the White House, are called to lives of character. Character is built on the pillars of sacrosanct trust that demands conduct beyond reproach.
