“Foolish is the leader whom in the midst of organizational chaos believes since no one is approaching them with issues or concerns then everything must be doing fine. When your Soldiers cease communicating with you are 3ft into a 6ft hole.”

“Wisdom from Top Butler: Guard yourself at all times but don't let anyone lead you to live a guarded life that is all.”
Donavan Nelson Butler, Master Sergeant US Army“The fragile ego of a poor leader can not resist the urge to tug at the delicate fabric of good order and disipline thus unraveling their own true nature.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“Truth is after you've put out all the INFO to your Soldiers in formation they'll soon forget what you said but will never forget what you did behind those words.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“Even the most absent minded Soldier will develope a memory like a elephant when mistreated.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“Being a leader doesn't mean you always have to be in charge. Sometimes leaders make certain others have the right information at the right time to lead the charge or pull back to fight another day.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“As a leader you should look in the mirror and ask yourself would I follow you ensured of a victory.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“You don’t know what your account balance of personal courage is until that situation presents itself where that check needs to be written and cashed”
Donavan Nelson Butler“I've never been part of an formation where the leader succeeded on their own merits apart from their Soldier's.”
Donavan Nelson Butler“The greatest risk most of us will take in our lifetime is that of repression or denial of basic rights of another person. The great risk is that you have no idea what will happen if that person you think so small or insignificant of stands up and totally eclipses the Sun in the universe of those lacking in empathy, humility, and humbleness.”
Donavan Nelson Butler, Master Sergeant US Army“Leading by example through "Servant Leadership" used to be a badge of honor that distinguished you from the Corps of the Blue Falcon. Present day I see the ranks of the Blue Falcon surging in a flagless flotilla of blurred morals, a low tide of integrity, and selfish ethics adrift with no anchorage. The pulse of the led is directly influenced by the organizational heart rate of the leader.”
