ACTION
Andrew Jackson, 7th President of the United States of America
“Take time to deliberate; but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in.”
We are up to #7, the formidable President on the $20 Bill, Andrew Jackson, on the value of Action! Andrew Jackson remains one of America's most complex and controversial presidents. His decisiveness, resilience, and willingness to act offer valuable leadership lessons, while his role in Native American removal and his ownership of enslaved people are sobering parts of his legacy that should not be overlooked. History rarely gives us uncomplicated leaders, but it can still challenge us to reflect, learn, and lead better. Fun personal note: I've visited Jackson's home, the Hermitage, in Nashville!
