You don’t become…..

…… an effective leader by default.

– John C Maxwell

People who are……

……. not leaders automatically gravitate toward lines–limitations set by others. Many people are taught this in kindergarten when they are instructed to stay within the lines while colouring. But leaders are more creative than that. They look for options and opportunities. They try to take things in a new direction, or beyond the limit. Progress and innovation are made by people who think without lines.

– John C Maxwell

Leadership is…..

……. about creating the future, not predicting it.

– Marshall Sashkin & Molly Sashkin

Leadership is…..

……. the readiness to stand out in a crowd.

– John C Maxwell

Leaders must be…..

…….. close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.

– John C Maxwell

When we…..

…… think we lead, we are most led.

– Lord Byron

The first responsibility….

……. of a leader is to define reality.

– Max De Pree

Good leadership is…..

……. largely invisible. When everything runs smoothly, no one notices.

– Brian Herbert & Kevin Anderson

Leadership is…..

…… the outward expression of our inner character.

– Dick Abel

 

Leadership is ……

…… the willingness to put oneself at risk.

– John C Maxwell
