Our commitment to evidence-based research and constructive debate means to ensure governance remains pragmatic, responsive, and built to serve the people. Our mission is driven by our boundless faith in American ingenuity, our can-do spirit, and our ability to create innovative and effective public policy to meet any challenge we face. We are dedicated to serving as an independent and unifying voice for all Americans of goodwill. And we are committed to shaping a brighter, more prosperous and more secure future for the generations to come. Join us in shaping a smarter, more informed nation.

Morale isn’t a mood; it’s a mission. In this week's Sunday Wire, we examine the essence of leadership through the lens of George C. Marshall's moral clarity.

From the quiet courage of Marshall's service to the values that endure, we unpack the spirit that moves institutions, companies, and even nations forward. 📰 🦉 🇺🇸

This week: Leadership is morality and morale.

Our apologies for being a little late with the Sunday Wire again today, but since it's the inaugural edition in the new format, we had a little work to do to get it right. In the future, we'll drop at 10 a.m. Sunday morning on the dot. Promise. 🦉 🇺🇸

And with that, the Institute is up and running again and our first full publishing cycle has begun. It's good to be back.

This week: Gaza, the French circus, and an ancient Roman sailor.
