Who Gets The Credit?
Filed Under Random Thoughts | Author: Gerald Smith |
Harry Truman once said “its amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.” This is the same guy that ordered the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, which led to the end of World War II.
It seems a real hunger for authentic leadership avails in today’s uncertain economic environment. When it seems there are no real answers, it is time to look for real (authentic) leadership.
Authentic leadership looks toward tomorrow and considers the condition of the world to come rather than the world present. When most people are seeking answers for their present condition, authentic leadership considers the long-term interest and moves as quickly as possible.
I am privileged to live near Kansas City where President Truman remains a hero and is honored for his contributions to society.
