I learned so much about leadership from Bobby and his style. He had consistency. He treated a 19-year-old the same as a 40-year-old. It didn't matter what your resume was; he made you feel special. And he made it clear what you were going to be asked to do. He didn't sugarcoat. He didn't lie. He'd just tell you: This is the way it's going to be. According to John Smoltz Hall of Fame Pitcher.
