Everybody can be somebody when somebody understands and believes in her.

Leadership development is a lifetime journey, not a quick trip.

I think that self-discipline has to be accompanied by passion.

COMMUNICATION: If I had to pick a first rule of communication-the one practice above all others that opens the door to connecting with others-it would be to look for common ground. Too often people see communication as the process of transmitting massive amounts of information to other people. But that's the wrong picture. Communication is a journey. The more that people have in common, the better the chance that they can take that journey together.

Collaboration is multiplication.
