We must move from ... the primacy of technology toward considerations of social justice and equity, from the dictates of organizational convenience toward the aspirations ofself realization and learning, from authoritarianism and dogmatism toward more participation, from uniformity and centralization toward diversity and pluralism, from the concept of work as hard and unavoidable, from life as nasty, brutish, and short toward work as purpose and self~fulfillment, a recognition of leisure as a valid activity in itself.

In order to serve its purpose, a vision has to be a shared vision.

Great Groups need to know that the person at the top will fight like a tiger for them.

Leadership (according to John Sculley) revolves around vision, ideas, direction, and has more to do with inspiring people as to direction and goals than with day-to-day implementation. A leader must be able to leverage more than his own capabilities. He must be capable of inspiring other people to do things without actually sitting on top of them with a checklist.

Leaders know the importance of having someone in their lives who will unfailingly and fearlessly tell them the truth.

Understand the "Pygmalion Effect": Leaders should always expect the very best of those around them. They know that people can change and grow.

The first job of a leader is to define a vision for the organization...the capacity to translate vision into reality.
