A leader is not an administrator who loves to run others, but someone who carries water for his people so that they can get on with their jobs.

We know there is a problem with communication but we are not going to discuss it in front of the entire staff.

The artist must conceive with warmth yet execute with coolness.

It's been my experience that the people who gain trust, loyalty, excitement, and energy fast are the ones who pass on the credit to the people who have really done the work. A leader doesnt need any credit... He's getting more credit than he deserves anyway.

Make every decision as if you owned the company.

When you get right down to it, one of the most important tasks of a leader is to eliminate his people's excuse for failure.

If you don't do it excellently, don't do it at all. Because if it's not excellent, it won't be profitable or fun.
