The Wisdom of Colonel Eddie Ray - USMC

"Being effectively ruthless and genuinely caring are each manifestations of courage. The ability to effect their integration and foster the bond between leader and led can spell the difference between defeat and victory, because wars -- fought with weapons -- are won by people. Your sons and daughters, sisters and brothers, fathers and mothers. We are honored to lead them."

“The best leadership is done by walking around.”

“THE BEST WAY TO GET RESPECT IS BY GIVING IT.”

“ Whenever possible, give a clear, cogent endstate and let people achieve the result, their way..”

“On a championship team, everyone gets a trophy.”

“All of us are better than any of us.”

Colonel Eddie S. Ray
USMC
