Enthusiasm is something you can't fake, and it has a tremendous effect on everyone around you.

You can help determine your team's enthusiasm for the change by focusing on the entrance of potential while you are working through the exit of the past.

Doing the right thing isn't always easy - in fact, sometimes it's real hard - but just remember that doing the right thing is always right.

Leadership can't be claimed like luggage at the airport. Leadership can't be inherited, even though you may inherit a leadership position. And leadership can't be given as a gift - even if you've been blessed with an abundance of leadership skills to share with someone else. Leadership must be earned by mastering a defined set of skills and by working with others to achieve common goals.

Take the time and energy to manage your boss the same way you manage your team.

To become a courageous leader, you must realize that accepting responsibility is not optional - it's mandatory.

One of the main things for a leader is to eliminate confusion.
