Leadership as a shared responsibility

Drawing on his experience in emergency medicine and military service, Dr. (Colonel) Josh McConkey makes a case for preparing the next generation of leaders. He connects that work to settings well beyond business, including schools, families, sports, mentoring, and community service, and argues that these contributions matter to both national security and long-term prosperity. The book frames leadership as a collective effort: institutions and individuals each have a role in equipping future professionals amid political and generational divisions.
