Do what you say you will do.

The word "story" is short for the word "history." They both have the same root and fundamentally mean the same thing. A story is a narrative on an event or series of events, just like history.

Leaders strengthen credibility by demonstrating that they are not in it for themselves, instead they have the interests of the institution, department, or team and its constituents at heart. Being a servant may not be what many leaders had in mind when they chose to take responsibility for the vision and direction of their organization or team - but serving others is the most glorious and rewarding of all leadership tasks.

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.

You must unite your constituents around a common cause and connect with them as human beings.

It always takes a group of people working together with a common purpose in an atmosphere of trust and collaboration to get extraordinary things done.

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