THE JOURNAL OF CHARACTER & LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT / WINTER 2021 FROM THE EDITOR Ethos Douglas R. Lindsay, Editor in Chief, JCLD What do you stand for? That is broad question that encompasses many thoughts and identities. It stems from notions such as who we are, who we chose to be, and what we value. While these can shift a bit as we learn, grow, and develop, it tends to be our center and our guide. From time to time, we encounter challenges to our stand or what we believe. Sometimes those challenges are foreseen, but often they are not. Our response to those challenges are influenced by many factors. I suggest that the greatest of these, however, is preparation. This involves choosing ahead of time how we will show up into a situation. While the circumstances, people, and challenges may be novel to the situation, we are not. What I mean by that is we choose how we show up into each and every situation. We control our emotions, actions, beliefs, and preparation. Depending on where you are at on your own developmental journey that can be great news as it implies control and focus. We are in control of our actions and even our reactions. If we look at every leadership situation, it at least consists of the leader, the follower, and the situation. Even in situations where we have no perceived control over the circumstances, and even though we may have not been able to influence those who are on the team, we still control 33% of the leadership dynamic directly—ourselves. That means that the worst influence we have on a situation, even complex ones, is 33%. That’s great news when dealing with the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous situations of today. The even better news is that, generally, we will have some influence over the situation (at least an understanding of the dynamics) and over the individuals/teams that we lead. The point here is that no matter the situation we find ourselves in as a leader, we fully own ourselves, how we show up, and our subsequent reactions. Effective leader developers know that this is important. It is the constant with which we have to work. When executive coaches work with leaders, the frame of reference that they use is the individual. When teachers work with students, effective teachers start with where the student is at. This individual focus is important because it Dr. Douglas Lindsay is the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Character and Leadership Development (JCLD). Prior to assuming his current role, he was a Professor and the founding Director of the Masters of Professional Studies Program in the Psychology of Leadership at Pennsylvania State University. He also served in the United States Air Force where he retired after a 22-year career, serving in a multitude of roles, including research psychologist, occupational analyst, inspector general, deputy squadron commander, senior military professor, Full Professor, deputy department head and research center director. He has over well over 100 publications and presentations on the topic of leadership and leadership development. He received a Bachelor's Degree from the United States Air Force Academy (class of 1992), a Master's Degree from the University of Texas at San Antonio, and a PhD in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from Pennsylvania State University. EDITORIAL is the most important point of leverage for individual to get them through and even succeed. However, for development. The starting point is who we are. all individuals, and especially leaders, we come to a Who are we as a person? This is often referred to as point where these things must be considered. We all ethos. Put simply, ethos (Merriam-Webster, n.d.) is get challenged, pushed, and stretched at some point. If our distinguishing character, our moral nature, the we don’t know who we are and what we stand for, our guiding beliefs we have as a person. It isn’t the skills ethos if you will, then we are on a shaky foundation and that we have; it is the person that we are.

Anderson Committee Members, Jon R. Bond H. W. Brands John H. Lenihan David Vaught Head of Department, Walter L. Buenger May 2008 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT Truman, Congress and the Struggle for War and Peace in Korea. (May 2008) Larry Wayne Blomstedt, B.S., Texas State University; M.S., Texas A&M University-Kingsville Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Terry H. Anderson This dissertation analyzes the roles of the Harry Truman administration and Congress in directing American policy regarding the Korean conflict. Using evidence from primary sources such as Truman’s presidential papers, communications of White House staffers, and correspondence from State Department operatives and key congressional figures, this study suggests that the legislative branch had an important role in Korean policy. Congress sometimes affected the war by what it did and, at other times, by what it did not do. Several themes are addressed in this project. One is how Truman and the congressional Democrats failed each other during the war. The president did not dedicate adequate attention to congressional relations early in his term, and was slow to react to charges of corruption within his administration, weakening his party politically.

After looking at locations in Florida, Wilbur came to Montgomery, Alabama in February 1910 and decided to open the nation’s first civilian flying school on an old cotton plantation near Montgomery that subsequently become Maxwell Air Force Base (AFB).

    Administration of Barack Obama, 2012 Commencement Address at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado May 23, 2012 The President. Thank you so much. Please be seated. Good morning, everybody! Audience members. Good morning! The President. It is wonderful to be at the United States Air Force Academy on such a spectacular day, and it is a privilege to join you in honoring the class of 2012. [Applause] I want to thank Secretary Donley for his introduction, but more importantly, for his leadership. Generals Gould, Clark, and Born; Academy faculty and staff; the Governor, Hickenlooper; Members of Congress; distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen—I especially want to acknowledge a graduate of this Academy who has kept our Air Force strong through a time of great challenge, a leader I've relied on and for whom today is his final commencement as Chief of Staff, General Norton Schwartz. Norty, Suzie, we could not be prouder of you, and we are grateful for 39 years of extraordinary service to our Nation. And although he is not with us today, I'm proud to have nominated another Academy graduate, General Mark Welsh, as the next Chief of Staff. Now, this is my second visit to the Academy. I was here in the summer of 2008, and you were getting ready to head out to Jacks Valley. So I was proud to be here when you began this journey, and I thought I'd come back and help you celebrate at the end. [Laughter] It's great to be back at a school that has produced so many of the airmen I've known as President.

  • Profiles in Statesmanship: Seeking a Better World Bruce W. Jentleson
    1 Profiles in Statesmanship: Seeking a Better World Bruce W. Jentleson Paper presented at the University of Virginia, International Relations Speaker Series April 12, 2013 Comments welcome; [email protected] Do not cite without permission 2 The usual metric for the world leaders’ scorecard is who has done the most to advance their own country’s national interests. The book I’m writing, Profiles in Statesmanship: Seeking a Better World, poses a different question: who has done the most to try to build peace, security and justice inclusive of, but not exclusive to, their own country’s particular national interests? There is statesmanship to make one’s own nation more successful. And there is Statesmanship to make the world a better place. This is not altruism, but it also is not just a matter of global interests as extensions of national ones as typically conceived. Both statesmanship and Statesmanship take tremendous skill and savvy strategy. The latter also takes a guiding vision beyond the way the world is to how it can and should be, as well as enormous courage entailing as it does great political and personal risk. Not surprisingly there are not a lot of nominees. Writing in 1910 and working with similar criteria --- not just “winning a brief popular fame . but to serving the great interests of modern states and, indeed, of universal humanity” --- the historian Andrew Dickson White identified Seven Great Statesmen.1 Two 19th century British historians compiled the four- volume Eminent Foreign Statesmen series, but using more the traditional small s-statesmanship criteria of just national interest.
