When Leaders Lack Character

Picking up from yesterday....

Character informs values.  Values inform character.  In combination, they manifest behaviors resulting from decisions.  Not unlike other critical moments in history — and again now more than ever — we need leaders of strong character and the values that drive it to make critical decisions (especially those that transcend the simple interests of money).

As is too often the case, we have to turn back to the people for the character (and values) that is needed when leaders lack it.
