av Don Snider
Lead your people to excellence using the time-honored values of one of America's most successful institutionsAs one of America's most honored institutions, West Point has produced some of the greatest leaders in the history of the nation--and the world. For almost a century, West Point's men and women have been both informedand inspired by the "Cadet Prayer"--a simple but profound set of moral precepts for those who aspire to realize in their lives and work as leaders the ideals and principles of West Point.

Imagine if business had a similar compassfor leadership . . .

Using the "Cadet Prayer" and the Academy'sdevelopmental model as a foundation, U.S. Army veteran and West Point professor Don M. Snider and his colleagues lay the groundwork for achieving leadership success in any business. Snider's assertion is this: In leadership, moral character comes first. Without it, skills, competence, and even vision are useless. Here are just a few of the leadership axioms from the "Cadet Prayer":

Strengthen and increase our admiration for honest dealing and clean thinkingMake us to choose the harder right instead of the easier wrongEndow us with courage that is born of loyalty to all that is noble and worthyGuard us against flippancy and irreverence in the sacred things of lifeGrant us new ties of friendship and new opportunities of serviceHonesty. Transparency. Loyalty. Service. These aren't "soft" traits. The're the nuts and bolts of quality leadership. They're the hallmark of authentic leadership for the sake of it. And they are the rock-solid foundationon which stand leadership success and all that comes with it.

"In leadership," Snider writes, "being precedes doing." This timeless truth is the firststep toward leadership excellence in any walk of life. The Warrior's Character will take you the rest of the way.
