Think of managing change…
…. as an adventure. It tests your skills and abilities. It brings forth talent that may have been dormant. Change is also a training ground for leadership. When we think of leaders, we remember times of change, innovation and conflict. Leadership is often about shaping a new way of life. To do that, you must advance change, take risks and accept responsibility for making change happen
– Charles Rice
The led….
.. must not be compelled; they must be able to choose their own leader
– Albert Einstein
The empires….
of the future are empires of the mind

Challenge is…..
… the opportunity for greatness. People do their best when there is an opportunity to change how things currently stand. Maintaining the status quo facilitates mediocrity. Those who embrace this practice do not wish to rest on their laurels. They motivate others to exceed their limits and look for innovative ways to improve the organisation.

Excellence is….
…Caring more than others think is wise;
Risking more than others think is safe;
Dreaming more than others think is practical.
Expecting more than others think is possible

I do not think….
…… that power can be delegated because I believe that genuine power is capacity. Coercive power is the curse of the universe; coactive power, the enrichment and advancement of every human soul.
– Mary Parker Follett
Conformity is…
….. the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth
– John F. Kennedy
When nothing….
is sure, everything is possible
– Margaret Drabble
It’s not…
…whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get back up
– Vince Lombardi
