A good leader takes care of those in their charge. A bad leader takes charge of those in their care.

Leaders volunteer to go first into danger. Their willingness to sacrifice for us is the reason we're inspired to follow.

The world is a bell curve. Classroom test scores, employee performance in a company or how many people really, really like you. No matter the population you're studying, they always fit neatly across the standard deviations of the famous bell curve.

Any great and inspiring leader or organization that ever existed set out to do something completely unrealistic.

Though there are lessons that can be learned about becoming a great leader, most exist inherently in the bellies of those who lead.

We become leaders when we accept the responsibility to protect those in our care.

I look for the hotels that have figured out the comfortable balance - a modern room that is well designed, and really clean sheets.
