Most people who call themselves leaders today care more about themselves and just go bossing people around instead of having the focus to develop others
Yes they do. Most leaders are ineffectual.
all they care to show is how attractive, rich and influential they are.
Some do. I'm a leader, and I don't do this. There are some very good leaders out there, people who set great examples. But sure, there's bad ones too.
Erwin Rommel had the qualities of a good leader
I have studied this fellow in great depth, the man, his methods battlefield tactics, ethics and morals. He is (was) someone many could learn from.
Ain't disputing this fact and yes I know you're a good leader, I really don't have to be told I've got big eyes to see it and a big heart to know it.
Had to dig wiki for his story and it's really interesting. I love historical people like this that made a name. Are you in the military?
He came to a sad end and he deserved a lot better than that. He chose to suicide and have his honour intact though, and that of his family. There's courage and selflessness in that I think. Still, he deserved better thank you slowly die in the back seat of a Nazi Staff car I think.
I find so much value in looking back into history and there's so much that we can take, the experiences of great and small alike, and apply to our lives in the present and future. I often say, the answers to the future lie in the past.
Indeed, there's a lot to take/learn from them Patriots.
