I think that…

I think that leadership comes from integrity – that you do whatever you ask others to do. I think there are non-obvious ways to lead. Just by providing a good example as a parent, a friend, a neighbour makes it possible for other people to see better ways to do things. Leadership does not need to be a dramatic fist in the air and trumpets blaring activity.

– Scott Berkun

 

Listen….

Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity.

– Roy Bennett

We must….

We must strive to become good ancestors

– Ralph Nader

Diligence…

Diligence is the mother of good luck

– Benjamin Franklin

Too many mangers….

Too many managers talk too much. The two most important words for a player, or for any human being, there is nothing better than hearing “Well done.” And few reprimands are as powerful as silence

– Sir Alex Ferguson

All the great things…

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honour, duty, mercy, hope.

– Winston S Churchill

We make…

We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

– Winston Churchill

Faith….

Faith in the ability of a leader is of slight service unless it be united with faith in his justice.

– George Goethalls

The true test…

The true test of your authenticity as a leader is shown in the authentic behaviour of your followers

– Paradigms of Leadership

It is….

It is the characteristic excellence of the strong man that he can bring momentous issues to the fore and make a decision about them. The weak are always forced to decide between alternatives they have not chosen themselves.

– Dietrich Bonhoeffer
