Colonel Chris P. Levy You explains you can learn almost as much about leadership from losers as you can from heroes. The good leaders in a person’s history are usually the ones that spring to mind when considering how to lead. I ask you to break from this habit and consider the leaders you would rather forget, the ones that still give you that feeling in the pit of your stomach or cause you to have nightmares. Those bad leaders can teach you what NOT to do, and those results can be just as beneficial in developing desired leadership qualities.
