What unfolds is a refreshing intergenerational dialogue that challenges assumptions and uncovers surprising common ground. The gap between generations? Maybe it’s not as wide as we think.

About the Congressional Football Game

Started in 2004, the Congressional Football Game was first organized to honor and support the men and women of the U.S. Capitol Police and to support the families of fallen officers.

The biennial showdown features Members of Congress and former NFL players facing off against U.S. Capitol Police. The game is a family-friendly event that includes entertainment and spirited competition on the field while bringing together Congressional and law enforcement communities in support of worthy causes.

This month we explore leadership.

What does it mean to be a leader? How do good leaders respond under pressure? What does a team want from their leader?

While there are nuanced answers to all of these questions, there is one thing that remains at the forefront; putting others first. There is no better person to have this conversation with than long-time USSFCU member, US Army Major General, Senate Sergeant at Arms and Ambassador to Tanzania Alfonso E. Lenhardt.

About Ambassador Lenhardt

Alfonso E. Lenhardt represented the United States as Ambassador to Tanzania from 2009 to 2013. He was also accredited as the US representative to the East African Community (EAC) in 2010. From 2001 to 2003, he served as Sergeant at Arms of the United States Senate. From 1965 to 1997, he had a distinguished military career in the U.S. Army, with multiple assignments to various parts of the world, retiring as a highly decorated Major General.
