“A leader must lead……

….. Where others see obstacles, he must see opportunities. When others see problems, he must see possibilities … Civilization is not built on a negation but on an affirmation- an affirmation of the bright and promising possibilities that the future holds for those who are enterprising enough to pursue them.”

– David J Vaughan

“You did what…..

……..your heart told you to do. It is what leaders, not followers, do.”

– Tonya Hurley

“Anybody will do for you……

 

………but not for me. I must have somebody.”

– Abraham Lincoln

“A leader isn’t someone …..

…….who forces others to make him stronger; a leader is someone willing to give his strength to others so that they may have the strength to stand on their own.”

– Beth Revis

“If you’re not confused…..

….. you’re not paying attention.”

– Tom Peters

“The world is full…..

……of men who want to be right, when actually the secret of a man’s strength and his pathway to true honour is his ability to admit fault when he has failed. God wants to fill the church with men who can say they are wrong when THEY ARE WRONG. A man who is willing to humble himself before God and his family and say:”I was wrong.” will find that his family has all the confidence in the world in him and will much more readily follow him. If he stubbornly refuses to repent or admit he was wrong, their confidence in him and in his leadership erodes.”

– Jim Anderson

“True leaders understand…..

… that leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up.”

– Sheri L Dew

“People in any organisation….

…… are always attached to the obsolete – the things that should have worked but did not, the things that once were productive and no longer are.”

– Peter F Drucker

“A sense of humour….

…….. is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done.”

– Dwight D Eisenhower

“Surround yourself with…..

……. great people; delegate authority; get out of the way”

– Ronald Reagan
