What does it take to be a good leader? This question and more are explored in this episode. George Casey, Jr. is a four star General who served 41 years as an American soldier, eventually leading as the 36th Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army. Known for his integrity, candor, and humor, General Casey is widely credited with restoring balance to the Army during one of the most unusual periods in political and military history, and in leading efforts to keep the army relevant in the 21st century. He is on the board of directors of a number of veteran services groups, continuing to be a leading advocate for military families, wounded soldiers, and survivors of the fallen.
