To be…

…. able to lead others, a man must be willing to go forward alone

– Harry Truman

So much…

… of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work

– Peter Drucker

Unhealthy cultures…

are the ones in which metrics are the predominant means of measuring of performance

– Simon Sinek

Our lives…

… begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter

– Martin Luther King

Without leaps…

… of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning

– Gloria Steinem

Courage…

…. is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen

– Winston Churchill

If we….

…. cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible

– Chellis Glendinning

The content…

…. of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you choose, what you think and what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny … it is the light that guides your way

– Heraclitus

The true…

… mark of a leader is the willingness to stick with a bold course of action — an unconventional business strategy, a unique product-development roadmap, a controversial marketing campaign — even as the rest of the world wonders why you’re not marching in step with the status quo. In other words, real leaders are happy to zig while others zag. They understand that in an era of hyper-competition and non-stop disruption, the only way to stand out from the crowd is to stand for something special

– Bill Taylor

Without leadership….

… command is a hollow experience, a vacuum often filled with mistrust and arrogance

– Eric Shinseki
