Worry not that your child listens to you; worry most that they watch you.

Knowing how the environment is pulling your strings and playing you is critical to making responsive rather than reactive moves.

Progress on problems is the measure of leadership; leaders mobilize people to face problems, and communities make progress on problems because leaders challenge them and help them to do so.

If you find what you do each day seems to have no link to any higher purpose, you probably want to rethink what you're doing.

Exercising adaptive leadership is about giving meaning to your life beyond your own ambition.

Your inspiration taps hidden reserves of promise that sustain people through times that induce despair. You enable people to envision a future that sustains the best from their past while also holding out new possibilities.

Attention is the currency of leadership.
