Executive ability is deciding quickly and getting somebody else to do the work.
John Garland Pollard (1871 – 1937) was an American politician who served as the 51st Governor of Virginia from 1930 to 1934.
John Garland Pollard was born on August 4, 1871 in King & Queen County, Virginia. He was the son of Baptist minister John Pollard of King and queen Country, Virginia. He attended Richmond College (now the University of Richmond) but was forced to leave for ill health. He later entered Columbian College, now George Washington University. Pollard also wrote "The Pamunkey Indians of Virginia," an anthropogical survey that detailed the vanishing language and traditions of the early Virginia tribe.
His sister, Mary Ellen Pollard Clarke (1862-1939), was a prominent advocate of woman suffrage and wrote Human-Rights Not in Violation of States' Rights: An Appeal to the Men of Virginia (ca. 1915).
