The retired four-star general in the U.S. Army, rightfully had a lot to say about leadership.
Stanley McChrystal, a retired four-star general in the U.S. Army, rightfully had a lot to say about leadership, during the “Alchemy of Leadership” talk Saturday morning at Carnegie Hall. As the former commander of U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan, his insights were intercontinental. “There aren’t a series of qualities that you can have to be a perfect leader.
Other heavy-hitters like former FCC chairman Michael Powell, former U.S. National Security Adviser and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice, West Point professor Elizabeth Samet and Tulane University professor Walter Isaacson also spelled out firsthand accounts of leadership. As the former commander of U.S.
“When I took over Joint Special Operations Command counter-terrorist forces, it was Delta Force, [SEAL] Team Six, the [U.S. Army] Rangers — they are all wonderful cohesive proud organizations. People committed to the nation. But they’re very insular, very proud, very tribal in nature. As a consequence, Delta Force didn’t like the Seals very much, the Seals hated Delta. Both of them looked down at the Rangers and nobody wanted to talk to the aviators, because why would you?” he said.
Referring to “Leaders: Myth and Reality,” which was cowritten with Jeff Eggers and Jay Mangone, McChrsytal vouched for his interest in Coco Chanel. “I wrote a book about leaders a few years ago. I picked 13 leaders. I think people thought we’d cover generals, admirals and things like that. We actually covered a wide range of people — Martin Luther, Martin Luther King Jr., Walt Disney. And we covered Coco Chanel.
McChrystal continued, “She changes fashion radically and she does it by personal example.” Affirming Isaacson’s remark that Chanel helped bring women into the workforce, McChrystal said, “Exactly. She brings women into the work place at the end of the war.”
