“My book is for people who want to learn more about how to become their best selves,” says Carter, an expert in human performance improvement and leadership development.
Robert Carter III, our forgotten founding father, was a slave owner, but he argued that slavery was morally wrong and incompatible with Christian values. Ultimately, his tireless efforts and creative use of his resources resulted in progressive change, including the repeal of the old law prohibiting individual slave owners from freeing their slaves.
“In the beginning, the other Robert Carter III did more to abolish slavery than Presidents Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln combined,” Carter says, and “as a black American author, I’m very proud to share a name with this great man.”
“I am thrilled to help others better understand this consideration for American democracy and freedom,” says Carter
“Our forgotten founding father was a brilliant strategist who abhorred slavery,” says Carter, “he used his wealth, influence and connections to drive change.”
“Despite Carter’s bold decision – or perhaps because of it – his name has all but disappeared from the records of American history,” says Carter, “We can all learn from his life lessons and experiences to lead difficult transformations in our own lives.”
“We all have vital things we need to work on to improve our communication, our relationships, and our day-to-day functioning,” Carter says.
Carter delivers eleven fundamental leadership principles based on the remarkable life of our forgotten founding father, Robert “The Counselor” Carter III.
