Leadership Quotes

[davidbfpo]

Puzzled that - according to the Search function - General McChrystal does not have a thread of his own, plus this is not leadership quotes, rather a review of his book 'Team of Teams' in the independent British Army blog 'Army Leader'.

It starts with:

The 21^st century is a time unlike any other. Modern technology allows instant global communication for everyone, making the world no longer just highly complicated, but increasingly complex. It is this complexity, argues General Stanley McChrystal in his 2015 book Team of Teams, that makes it vital that we take a fresh look at how we think about leadership, management, and teamwork.

Near the end:

In conclusion, Team of Teams presents many interesting and challenging ideas in addition to the ones distilled above. By using a selection of case studies from history, McChrystal builds a case for a more nurturing style of leadership. For the junior officer or NCO looking to expand their repertoire of leadership styles, this is essential reading. For the more senior leaders out there, I suspect many of the lessons taught in this book may be ones you have already learnt for yourselves.
