All great leaders constantly seek new information and new ways of thinking.

The leader...is rarely the brightest person in the group. Rather they have extraordinary taste, which makes them more curators than creators. They are appreciators of talent and nurturers of talent and they have the ability to recognize valuable ideas.

The future has no shelf life

The manager administers; the leader innovates.

Create a compelling vision, one that takes people to a new place, and then translate that vision into a reality.

Growing other leaders from the ranks isn't just the duty of the leader, it's an obligation.

Perhaps the central task of the leader of leaders thus becomes the development of other leaders.
