If you think you're a leader and you turn around and no one is following you, then you're simply out for a walk.

It is striking how our language reveals the visual nature of our thoughts about the future state of affairs. When we invent the future, we try to get a mental picture of what things will be like long before we have begun the journey. Visions are our windows on the world of tomorrow.

Leaders must know where they are going if they expect others to willingly join them on the journey.

The best way to lead people into the future is to connect with them deeply in the present.

If you think you're a leader and you turn around and no one is following you, then you're simply out for a walk.

There's nothing more demoralizing than a leader who can't clearly articulate why we're doing what we're doing.

A leader with integrity has one self, at home and at work, with family and with colleagues. He or she has a unifying set of values that guide choices of action regardless of the situation.
