Question

Identify and explain a significant decision made by George Washington in his personal life that had immediate consequences for the United States of America.

Answer 1

General Washington decided not to impose a battlefield strategy on his field commanders.

The general consensus among historians is that Washington was a mediocre military strategist at best. However, a recent study in the Academy of Management Journal cast some doubt on that consensus.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:
