LTAC | Leadership, Teaming, & Culture
This is the prime directive.
Security exists to enable the organization to succeed. We have security so we know that no matter what happens, we will be all right. We are the security and the organization is our shared World. We require security so we can continue to pursue life, liberty, and happiness.
Every one of us has a WHY, a deep-seated purpose, cause or belief that is the source of our passion and inspiration. You may not yet know what yours is or how to express it in words. But I guarantee, you have one. With your permission to rephrase, what we are saying is I believe you are helping keep me and my loved ones safe and protecting our right and our opportunity to pursue fulfillment. I am doing the same for you and yours.
Our objective is not to discard the hard work and progress that others contributed thus far but to adopt and adapt what we already know about leadership to our relatively new environment. The objective is not to be perfect right away. The objective is to be at least a little bit better every day than we were the day before.
To that end, the following is a list of recommended resources.
