Alexander the Great never asked his men to do something he wouldn't do himself. In the Gedrosian Desert, when his army was dying of thirst, a scout brought him a helmet full of water. Alexander poured it into the sand, refusing to drink while his men went without. This act of solidarity earned him undying loyalty. He teaches that the greatest leaders share the hardships of their followers and lead from the front lines, not the rear tent.
