Educationists…

Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.

– Abdul Kalam

 

The role…

The role of Leadership is to elicit the leadership in your followers

– Paradigms of Leadership

The greatest leaders…

The greatest leaders build organisations that in the end, don’t need them

– Jim Collins

 

True leaders…

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

It is…

It is absolutely necessary for me to have persons that can think for me, as well as execute orders.

– George Washington

Every man…

Every man of action has a strong dose of egotism, pride, hardness, and cunning. But all those things will be forgiven him, indeed, they will be regarded as high qualities, if he can make them the means to achieve great ends.

– Charles De Gaulle

Whether our task…

Whether our task is fighting poverty, stemming the spread of disease or saving innocent lives from mass murder, we have seen that we cannot succeed without the leadership of the strong and the engagement of all.

– Kofi Annan

A new leader…

… has to be able to change an organization that is dreamless, soulless and visionless … someone’s got to make a wake up call.

– Warren Bennis

A fresh critical look…

.. is being taken at the issues of power and authority, and people are beginning to learn, however haltingly, to relate to one another in less coercive and more creatively supporting ways. A new moral principle is emerging, which holds that the only authority deserving of one’s allegiance is that which is freely and knowingly granted by the led to the leader in response to, and in proportion to, the clearly evident servant stature of the leader. Those who choose to follow this principle will not casually accept the authority of existing institutions. Rather, they will freely respond only to individuals who are chosen as leaders because they are proven and trusted as servants. To the extent that this principle prevails in the future, the only truly viable institutions will be those that are predominantly servant led.

– Robert Greenleaf

Keep your thoughts….

… positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behaviours. Keep your behaviours positive because your behaviours become your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.

– Gandhi
