A SALES LESSON FROM GENERAL GEORGE PATTON
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
George S. Patton (1885–1945) was a legendary U.S. Army general known for his bold leadership during World War II. He was tough, passionate, and had a knack for winning battles. Patton grew up in California, went to West Point, and had a lifelong love for military strategy. He became a tank expert before tanks were even widely used in war.
During World War I he helped create the Army’s tank corps and showed courage and creativity on the battlefield. And then during World War II, Patton shined as a commander. He led key victories in North Africa, Sicily, and Europe. His quick action during the Battle of the Bulge, especially rescuing troops in Bastogne, is one of his most famous moments.
General Patton was intense. He inspired his soldiers with fiery speeches and strong discipline, but he also stirred controversy, like when he criticized soldiers dealing with stress. Despite his flaws, he’s remembered as one of America’s greatest generals, known for his fearless style and quotes like, “Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.”
Patton’s story of courage, determination, and ACTIONS, provide lessons that can still inspire sales representatives today.
