Leadership Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Leadership

1.
Managers are people who do things right; leaders are people who do the right thing.
Bennis, Warren

2.
Leaders don't inflict pain -- they share pain.
Depree, Max

3.
Leaders aren't born, they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal.
Lombardi, Vince

4.
Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
John F. Kennedy

5.
The wise man who is not heeded is counted a fool, and the fool who proclaims the general folly first and loudest passes for a prophet and F?hrer, and sometimes it is luckily the other way round as well, or else mankind would long since have perished of stupidity.
Jung, Carl

6.
I am more afraid of an army of 100 sheep led by a lion than an army of 100 lions led by a sheep.
Talleyrand, Charles Maurice De

7.
Great leaders understand human behavior rather than the cybernetics of any function.
Schorr, James

8.
There is great force hidden in a gentle command.
Herbert, George

9.
The penalty of leadership is loneliness.
Robinson, H. Wheeler

10.
The first task of a leader is to keep hope alive.
Batten, Joe

11.
I must follow the people. Am I not their leader?
Disraeli, Benjamin

12.
The speed of the leader determines the rate of the pack.
Lukas, Wayne

13.
The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.
Churchill, Winston

14.
The highest of distinctions is service to others.
King George VI

15.
People try so hard to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher --a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. My Lord, no man can stand prominence these days. It's the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over.

16.
I am a leader by default, only because nature does not allow a vacuum.
Tutu, Bishop Desmond

17.
A prince should be slow to punish, and quick to reward.
Ovid

18.
Leadership is like the old galley ships. 100s are rowing, but only one (the captain) knows where they are going

19.
When firmness is sufficient, rashness is unnecessary.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

20.
Leadership in today's world requires far more than a large stock of gunboats and a hard fist at the conference table.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

21.
We will make them think it's their idea. That's how all great leaders fool people.
Laura Preble

22.
The leader can never close the gap between himself and the group. If he does, he is no longer what he must be. He must walk a tightrope between the consent he must win and the control he must exert.
Lombardi, Vince

23.
The golden rule for every business man is this: Put yourself in your customer's place.
Marden, Orison Swett

24.
An order that can be misunderstood will be misunderstood.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

25.
The wealth of kings is in the affections of their subjects.
Motto

26.
To be a leader, you have to make people want to follow you, and nobody wants to follow someone who doesn't know where he is going.
Namath, Joe

27.
Do what is right, not what you think the high headquarters wants or what you think will make you look good.
Schwarzkopf, Norman

28.
Leaders create an environment which everyone has the opportunity to do work which matches his potential capability and for which an equitable differential reward is provided.
Jaques, Elliott

29.
Eagles don't flock, you have to find them one at a time.
Perot, H. Ross

30.
The person who renders loyal service in a humble capacity will be chosen for higher responsibilities, just as the biblical servant who multiplied the one pound given him by his master was made ruler over ten cities...
Forbes, B. C.

31.
There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.
Machiavelli, Niccolo

32.
You can lead a whore to culture but you can't make her think.
Parker, Dorothy

33.
The best leaders... almost without exception and at every level, are master users of stories and symbols.
Peters, Thomas J.

34.
Men are lead by trifles.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

35.
Popularity is not leadership.
Marcinko, Richard

36.
The crowd gives the leader new strength.
Evenius

37.
Leadership has to do with direction. Management has to do with the speed, coordination and logistics in going in that direction. The WORKERS are chopping their way through the jungle. The MANAGERS are coordinating, making sure the tools are sharp, etc. The LEADERS climb a tree and shout Wrong jungle!! The MANAGERS shout back Be quiet! We're making progress!

38.
Faith in the ability of a leader is of slight service unless it be united with faith in his justice.
George Goethals

39.
Don't tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.
Patton, George S.

40.
The minute a person whose word means a great deal to others dare to take the open-hearted and courageous way, many others follow.
Anderson, Marian

41.
When the best leader's work is done the people say, We did it ourselves.
Lao-Tzu

42.
A leader is a person you will follow to a place you wouldn't go by yourself.
Barker, Joel A.

43.
He is the richest man who enriches his country most; in whom the people feel richest and proudest; who gives himself with his money; who opens the doors of opportunity widest to those about him; who is ears to the deaf; eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. Such a man makes every acre of land in his community worth more, and makes richer every man who lives near him.
Marden, Orison Swett

44.
A leader has the vision and conviction that a dream can be achieved. He inspires the power and energy to get it done.
Lauren, Ralph

45.
The right man comes at the right time.
Proverb, Italian

46.
If I advance, follow me! If I retreat, kill me! If I die, avenge me!
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

47.
All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

48.
It is a characteristic of all movements and crusades that the psychopathic element rises to the top.
Lindner, Robert

49.
I don't think that a leader can control to any great extent his destiny. Very seldom can he step in and change the situation if the forces of history are running in another direction.
Nixon, Richard M.

50.
Do your best to be the lead dog otherwise the view never changes.
