YHC thought he’d be just tired from staying up for the Clemson game. The unexpected feelings of disappointment made for a not-so-moderate workout, enjoyed by all. Great to see the men that posted, but especially great to meet Tin Cup, Halfback, and Mighty Mite.

Thanks to Boogie Down for the opportunity to lead.

Leadership Development

Leadership Development, as defined by F3 Q Source, is the process employed
by a group to develop new leaders. While simply stated, this definition can be
challenging to execute if we wade through the world as Sad Clowns. The Fort is
rich in leaders as observed by YHC in COT, in our community and more
importantly in our homes. But similar to fitness, leadership must continually be
developed, these muscles must be challenged, or else leaders too can fall victim
to the Status Quo.

As we introduce a focus on Leadership Development or LDP in the Fort, our
goal is to build internally (Get Right) to impact externally (Live/Lead Right) and
leave a legacy (Leave Right). These core concepts written in Q Source will be
the lexicon of our efforts as we challenge ourselves to continue to grow as great
leaders and develop the next generation of leaders along the way.

The challenge is simple, the content is available but the choice to grow as a
leader is yours. The fruit of this choice has immense potential and I am confident
that the Pax of the Fort will continue to execute.
