The cover story of the March 22, 2010 issue of FORTUNE Magazine is titled “Meet The New Face of Leadership.” It details why companies like Wal-Mart, PepsiCo, and GE are recruiting the military’s elite. These companies see tremendous value in bringing in world-class leadership talent from the ranks of junior military officers who have recently led soldiers, sailors, Marines, and airmen.
