Rear Adm. Walter E. “Ted” Carter Jr., president, U.S. Naval War College (NWC), speaks with instructors, staff members and guests of Naval Leadership and Ethics Center (NLEC) in Newport, R.I., during a ribbon cutting ceremony for NLEC at Perry Hall onboard Naval Station Newport. As of May 1, NLEC, formerly known as Command Leadership School, was realigned as an echelon three command under NWC. The NLEC will serve as the Navy and NWC’s instrument to provide curriculum development along with assessment to instill fundamental tenets of ethical leadership throughout the Navy; develop and guide leaders with a strong abiding sense of responsibility, authority, and accountability; and impart commitment of Navy Core Values and Navy Ethos to Sailors.
