Followers…
… who tell the truth, and leaders who listen to it, are an unbeatable combination
– Warren G Bennis
Leaders are…
… people who are able to express themselves fully…they know who they are, what their strengths and weaknesses are, and how to fully deploy their strengths and compensate for their weaknesses. They also know what they want, why they want it, and how to communicate what they want to others, in order to gain compensation and support. Finally, they know how to achieve their goals. The key to full self-expression is understanding one’s self and the world, and the key to understanding is learning – from one’s own life and experience.
– Warren Bennis
You have to…
… look at leadership through the eyes of the followers and you have to live the message. What I have learned is that people become motivated when you guide them to the source of their own power and when you make heroes out of employees who personify what you want to see in the organisation.
– Anita Roddick
The very essence…
….. of leadership is that you have to have a vision. It’s got to be a vision you articulate clearly and forcefully on every occasion. You can’t blow an uncertain trumpet.
– Reverend Theodore Hesburgh
Leaders are expected……
…….. to look into the future, to gaze across the time horizon and communicate to us what they see. It’s not about being prescient or clairvoyant. It’s about being discerning and perceptive. It’s about noticing what’s around the corner.
– James Kouzes & Barry Posner
