Description

Carter Bell, Major US Army, West Point & Columbia Grad, discusses the importance of giving back to the future generations of Leaders and how a place like West Point is the perfect environment to do so.  Coming back to West Point has allowed Carter to train, develop and mentor the future of military and private industry Leaders.  With incredible experience leading teams in extremely hostile and high-stress environments, Carter is able to share real examples with students and how sharing failures has been one of his best teaching tools.  His tenure in the military has given him perspective on empathy being a two-way street, patience being the key to growing future Leaders and how human the entire process really is.  Carter and Joseph (Host) also reminisce about the forging times they experienced at a small outpost in Afghanistan and how this was a breeding ground for many life lessons.
