0:00.0	This is the Danger Close podcast.
0:08.6	Beyond the Books with me, Jack Carr.
0:16.5	Welcome to the Danger Close podcast, an Ironclad original, presented by Navy Federal Credit Union.
0:22.1	In this episode, I will be answering listener questions. So let's do this.
0:26.9	Q and A. Who was best at finding and placing talent? General Washington, General Grant, or General Marshall?
0:34.5	I would say that would be George Marshall. And that is because he fired so many
0:39.3	people up to and through World War II to put those leaders in the positions. And those are names
0:45.5	that we all know today. He would not fail people forward. He would not fail leaders forward.
0:50.8	He'd give them a second chance, but he would not give them a third, fourth, fifth, and

1:07.4	the Department of Defense. And we've been failing senior level leaders up pretty much
1:13.7	ever since. So George Marshall there, and General Grant, it took a long time to get to General
1:20.2	Grant. Lincoln went through quite a few generals, quite a few leaders until he got to Grant,
1:27.0	and that's an incredible story as well
1:29.3	but uh general george marshall i would have to say and he had a list of attributes that he
1:34.7	thought were the most important for leaders and one of those was common sense and same thing
1:41.0	that uh in on war that karl von klauschwitz said was one of the most important elements of a battlefield leader.
1:48.4	Common sense.
1:49.5	Important in life as well.
1:51.8	All right.
1:52.0	Next question.
