Hamilton could never be the President of the United States because he was foreign born. However, he became the "most influential founding father." His peers, not his family, wrote the following epitaph for his gravestone: "The patriot of incorruptible integrity, the soldier of approved valor, the statesman of consummate wisdom, whose talents and virtue will be admired by grateful posterity long after this marble shall have moldered into dust."
Your Students Will Learn:
1. The 7 Principles Hamilton Used to Build and Retain His Power and Influence
2. Easy to Remember Stories Exemplifying the Above
3. Who Hamilton Considered the Greatest Leader and Why
4. The Leadership Techniques Used by George Washington and Ben Franklin
5. The Time to Start is NOW!
(FYI: Hamilton's leadership accomplishments include designing and co-authoring The Federalist Papers (the essays that convinced America's citizens to ratify the Constitution); heading the first political party, the Federalists; significantly influencing the votes for President in the first four elections; being the First Secretary of the Treasury and designing our entire monetary and banking system; writing George Washington's farewell speech which is listed in the 100 Most Important Documents in the U.S. by the Library of Congress; and the list goes on.) |
