General McChrystal on Warrior Character, AI, and US Leadership | A Charlie Rose Global Conversation

General Stanley McChrystal's story begins as the son of a general and continues through a military career that saw him make important stops as he rose through the ranks - leading a Ranger battalion, serving with the 82nd Airborne, overseeing U.S. counterterrorism operations in Iraq as head of JSOC (the Joint Special Operations Command), and ultimately rising to his final post as commander of all U.S. and coalition troops in Afghanistan. This is, as you know, an important moment in the United States. The government is on strike, troops are deployed in American cities, there is hope for the release of hostages in Gaza, and Donald Trump may be rethinking Ukraine. I want to talk about big ideas: the U.S. role in the world as America approaches its 250th birthday on July 4, 2026; the changing world order; U.S. competition with China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran; the rise of populism and the challenge to liberal democracy; the internal risks to American institutions from autocracy; active wars in Ukraine, Gaza, and Sudan; and the risks posed by a government shutdown, the roundup of immigrants by ICE, and troops patrolling U.S. cities. We'll also look at the lessons of war - from World War II to Korea, Vietnam, the Balkans, the Middle East, and especially Iraq and Afghanistan, where General McChrystal served in command positions. I want to begin with his focus since retiring as a four-star general: teaching leadership at Yale and forming the McChrystal Group to bring lessons from the battlefield to the boardroom, as described in his MasterClass. That brings us to two critical ideas at the center of his message: leadership and character. I want to begin with character - the subject of his 2025 book, UNC Character: Choices That Define a Life.
