Can anyone describe a real-world situation when their army supervisor's feedback instructed or motivated others to take action?

I had a PLT SGT that applied common sense to the mission, real good logic. Very well planned maintenance on our AH-64Ds. That motivated us to maintain an OR rate of 80 percent or better. He was a one of a kind leader, and still is.

Words I've never forgotten. "Perform all your duties as if all your family is watching and their futures depend on them." CW4 Martinez This statement provided my mind set for the military, my law enforcement career and most of my private life. Oddly enough this was his advice when I was a newly promoted corporal and getting discouraged because of all the menial, meaningless of the assignments I was being given. I felt like we, those of promoted to corporal at that time, to absorb all the "shit" jobs that the new battalion commander was assigning as direct NCO guided or performed. Later it was stated that he had done this because he felt it was critical to allow for leadership and to have a better knowledge of how we would perform. Looking back I see the wisdom of this. As a supervisor I used this mentality to motivate and evaluate, my subordinates.
