United States Naval Academy, Keynote - 13 Company Dining-Out

Keynote, 13 Company Dining-Out, United State Naval Academy. George shares with the Midshipmen a definition of leadership..."pull a string, then push a string." One is leadership, the other management. Leaders pull, managers push.
Leaders lead people, managers manage things. George defines several core values of great leaders.

He challenges the Midshipmen to know the person in the mirror. He encourages them to continue to aim high, to always tell the
truth and to lead by example. They'll listen to you in the conference room but watch you on board ship. You have "it." Now use "it!'
