Leadership 101 is a series geared toward leaders of all levels – drawing on a mix of small-unit infantry leadership and business/special projects leadership – focusing on the foundations of leadership and the fundamentals of good leadership. It is aimed at strengthening the abilities of everyone from the junior leader (or commander) to the experienced, senior professional. We also hope and believe it will provide and enhance life skills for anyone regularly reading the series.
