The Marshall Center has published a new magazine-style profile of General George C. Marshall, designed to introduce the icon to new generations less familiar with 20th century history.

Mr. Bill Brooks is the leader of the all-volunteer docent cadre at Dodona Manor. He has volunteered as part of the docent team since 2009, working tirelessly to share the lessons of General Marshall with guests for 15 years.

On Monday, November 11th from 10 a.m.-11:15 a.m., the George C. Marshall International Center will join the Town of Leesburg and Loudoun County in hosting our 20th Annual Veterans Day Commemoration. This special event, which is free and open to the public, will take place on the grounds of Dodona Manor.

Loudoun Now was on hand to provide excellent coverage of our recent Off Duty event featuring Dr. Robert Holcomb and John H. Cook IV of the Claude Moore Charitable Foundation, which took place at St. James’ Episcopal Church.

We were saddened to learn of the recent passing of Alma Johnson Powell, wife of the late Secretary of State Colin Powell. In many ways, General Powell embodied General Marshall’s timeless model of selfless, effective ethical leadership and “five-star character.” The Marshall Center extends its deepest sympathies to the Powell family at this difficult time.

This week, Marshall Center Board Member Randy Minchew testified before the House Committee on Natural Resources Federal Lands Subcommittee on behalf of the George Marshall House Affiliated Area Designation Bill, which would designate Dodona Manor as an affiliated area under the National Park Service (NPS).

In war, as in all human endeavors, there are no perfect solutions to the problems people face. No matter what action we take, there is always some degree of doubt, risk and unintended consequence. That reality confronts leaders at all levels at all times.

Sixteen high school students spent a lively three days at Dodona Manor this week participating in the inaugural Camp Marshall. These future leaders honed their skills – and had fun – in a myriad of ways each day.

In a new video, CISA Director Jen Easterly, recipient of the 2024 George C. Marshall Award in Ethical Leadership, discusses her leadership journey and lessons she has learned throughout her career with students who have attended “Five-Star Character: The George C. Marshall Ethical Leadership Conference.”

Two longtime supporters of the Marshall Center – Randy Minchew and Steve Price – have just been named Loudoun Laureates.

On Friday, April 12, 2024, ethical leadership and generous support for the mission of the George C. Marshall International Center were once again in the spotlight.

Avid vegetable gardener Tom Watson, who grew up on a farm outside of Leesburg, has generously volunteered his time tending to Dodona’s gardens since 2020.

The George C. Marshall International Center today released The Inspiration of Great Principles: 2023 Impact Report of the George C. Marshall International Center, which highlights the organization’s work in telling the story of George C. Marshall, preserving historic Dodona Manor and inspiring leaders of today and tomorrow to live up to his example.

On June 24-26, 2024, the George C. Marshall International Center will host Camp Marshall, a free summer leadership experience for interested high school students to learn about the center’s ethical leadership model and build teamwork skills in a fun, supportive environment. The camp will be held at Dodona Manor in Leesburg daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
