Who was vince Lombardi and why did his leadership and value to the nation transcend the world of professional football?
The purpose of this effort is to answer these questions while exploring Lombardi as a strategic leader. This will be accomplished by examining Lombardi’s conceptual, technical and interpersonal strategic leader competencies described in The Strategic Leadership Primer published by the United States Army War College. Particular emphasis will be placed upon analyzing how Lombardi’s education, background and experience developed a solid frame of reference to support execution of these competencies at the strategic level.
