On June 23, 2008, President George W. Bush nominated Ann Dunwoody as a four-star general in the US Army -- the first time a woman had ever achieved that rank. Dunwoody's strategies are applicable to any leader, no matter the size or scope of the organization. They include lessons such as ''never walk by a mistake,'' a mandate to recognize when something is wrong, big or small, and to hold people accountable. She also advises that ''leaders aren't invincible -- don't try to be''; to be our best, we have to acknowledge our worst. And she encourages listeners to ''leverage the power of diversity'' by creating teams of people from different backgrounds to provide a broad range of ideas.
