Leadership

Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
- Lombardi, Vince
Leadership Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Leadership

1.
The best leaders are those most interested in surrounding themselves with assistants and associates smarter than they are. They are frank in admitting this and are willing to pay for such talents.
Parrish, Amos

2.
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

3.
Only one man in a thousand is a leader of men -- the other 999 follow women.
Marx, Groucho

4.
We will make them think it's their idea. That's how all great leaders fool people.
Laura Preble

5.
Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
John F. Kennedy

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

No affection and a great brain, these are the people to command the world.
Disraeli, Benjamin

9.
Leadership is the challenge to be something more than average.
Rohn, Jim

Leadership is the activity of influencing people to cooperate towards some goal which they come to find desirable and which motivates them over the long haul.
Tead, Orway

11.
Blessed are the people whose leaders can look destiny in the eye without flinching but also without attempting to play God.
Kissinger, Henry

12.
No man has ever risen to the real stature of spiritual manhood until he has found that it is finer to serve somebody else than it is to serve himself.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

13.
If you lead the people with correctness, who will dare not be correct?
Confucius

14.
Public sentiment is everything, with it nothing can fail, without it nothing can succeed.
Lincoln, Abraham

15.
The most important quality in a leader is that of being acknowledged as such.
Maurois, Andre

16.
Self-regulation will always be a challenge, but if somebody's going to be in charge, it might as well be me.
Daniel Akst

17.
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.

18.
The very essence of leadership is that you have to have vision. You can't blow an uncertain trumpet.
Hesburgh, Theodore M.

19.
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

20.
Napoleon affords us an example of the danger of elevating one's self to the absolute, and sacrificing everything to the carrying out of an idea.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

21.
All business success rests on something labeled a sale, which at least momentarily weds company and customer.
Peters, Thomas J.

22.
You cannot antagonize and influence at the same time.
Knox, John

23.
Leadership is action, not position.
Mcgannon, Donald H.

24.
A good leader needs to have a compass in his head and a bar of steel in his heart.
Townsend, Robert

25.
If you want to be comfortable -- take an easy job. If you aspire to leadership, take off your coat.

26.
The lead dog gets the best view. The rest of the dogs view is butt ugly. Of course, the lead dog is also the first to fall into the ravine.
Saunders, Richard

27.
Morale is faith in the man at the top.
Johnston, Albert Sidney

28.
I don't believe in just ordering people to do things. You have to sort of grab an oar and row with them.
Geneen, Harold S.

29.
Leaders don't inflict pain -- they share pain.
Depree, Max

30.
Leaders are readers.
Jones, Charles ''Tremendous''

31.
Pull the string, and it will follow wherever you wish. Push it, and it will go nowhere at all.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

32.
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.

33.
Those that rule must hear and be deaf, must see and be blind.
Proverb, German

34.
An army of deer would be more formidable commanded by a lion, than an army of lions commanded by a stag.
Proverb

35.
It often happens that I wake up at night and begin to think about a serious problem and decide I must tell the Pope about it. Then I wake up completely and remember that I am the Pope.
Pope John XXIII

36.
The well being of the people is the supreme law.

37.
There is no such thing as a perfect leader either in the past or present, in China or elsewhere. If there is one, he is only pretending, like a pig inserting scallions into its nose in an effort to look like an elephant.
Liu Shao-Ch'I

38.
Every leader needs to look back once in a while to make sure he has followers. Source Unknown Effective leaders are known by the questions they ask rather than the statements they make.

39.
Leadership appears to be the art of getting others to want to do something you are convinced should be done.
Packard, Vance

40.
The best leaders... almost without exception and at every level, are master users of stories and symbols.
Peters, Thomas J.

41.
People ask the difference between a leader and a boss. The leader works in the open, and the boss in covert. The leader leads, and the boss drives.
Roosevelt, Theodore

42.
A leader is someone who helps improve the lives of other people or improve the system they live under.
Ervin, Sam

43.
Time and money spent in helping men to do more for themselves is far better than mere giving.
Ford, Henry

44.
Outstanding leaders appeal to the hearts of their followers -- not their minds.

45.
When we think we lead we are most led.
Byron, Lord

46.
Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.

Certainly a leader needs a clear vision of the organization and where it is going, but a vision is of little value unless it is shared in a way so as to generate enthusiasm and commitment. Leadership and communication are inseparable.
Taylor, Claude

48.
Leaders must invoke an alchemy of great vision.
Kissinger, Henry

49.
A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way.

Patton, George S.
