Description

When we think of leadership, we often picture people who command attention, make tough decisions, and guide others through challenge and change. But what truly defines a great leader? And who inspires the leaders we admire most? Host Mo Barrett asked six Medal of Honor Recipients. For them, leadership was forged in the crucible of combat. But their lessons extend far beyond the battlefield – into classrooms, workplaces, families, and communities.
