The courage of leadership is giving others the chance to succeed even though you bear the responsibility for getting things done.

Our survival depends on our ability to form trusting relationships.

Remember to connect with people now and then. In fact, pick up the phone, right now, and call a friend for no other reason than to say hi.

We very often confuse personality with leadership.

One of the best paradoxes of leadership is a leader's need to be both stubborn and open-minded. A leader must insist on sticking to the vision and stay on course to the destination. But he must be open-minded during the process.

Follow those who follow something bigger than themselves - an idea, a belief, a vision, a cause. Run away from those who say we need to follow them.

Truly effective and inspiring leaders aren’t actually driven to lead people; they are driven to serve them.
