Sergeant Major, I'm curious, what's your perspective? Why is that humility so important for leadership, and how does that impact your role as an NCO from brigade command or now as division command?
6:48
Yeah.
6:48
Well, there's a good point.
6:49
In humility, you know, uh, I find that the two biggest things that a leader needs to have is, is one, humility.
6:56
Well, understanding exactly where you're at in the larger scheme of things, but also, you know, if you don't have that humility, you're not humble, you kind of lose the ability to understand that you need to learn and that you should learn, you know? And once you find yourself in that, that spot as a leader, you're, you're probably in a bad spot.
7:11
Um, so once again, I, I find that is one, one of the most important virtues that a leader can have, you know.
7:18
Focus and humility.
