Best Quotes about Leadership

1.
So much of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work.
Peter Drucker

2.
In really good companies, you have to lead. You have to come up with big ideas and express them forcefully. I have always been encouraged -- or sometimes forced -- to confront the very natural fear of being wrong. I was constantly pushed to find out what I really thought and then to speak up. Over time, I came to see that waiting to discover which way the wind was blowing is an excellent way to learn how to be a follower.
Enrico, Roger

3.
All business success rests on something labeled a sale, which at least momentarily weds company and customer.
Peters, Thomas J.

4.
Search others for their virtue, and yourself for your vices.
Fuller, R. Buckminster

5.
I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
Churchill, Winston

6.
Education is the mother of leadership.
Willkie, Wendell L.

7.
It is a terrible thing to look over your shoulder when you are trying to lead -- and find no one there.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

8.
The world cannot be governed without juggling.
Selden, John

9.
You can lead a whore to culture but you can't make her think.
Parker, Dorothy

10.
The boss drives people; the leader coaches them. The boss depends on authority; the leader on good will. The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says I; The leader says WE. The boss fixes the blame for the breakdown; the leader fixes the breakdown. The boss says, GO; the leader says lets, GO!
Selfridge, H. Gordon

11.
It is very comforting to believe that leaders who do terrible things are, in fact, mad. That way, all we have to do is make sure we don't put psychotics in high places and we've got the problem solved.
Wolfe, Thomas

12.
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

13.
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

14.
The successful man doesn't use others, other people use the successful man, for above all the success is of service.
Caine, Mark

15.
That is no use at all. What I want is men who will support me when I am in the wrong.
Melbourne, Lord

16.
Outstanding leaders appeal to the hearts of their followers -- not their minds.

17.
An army of deer would be more formidable commanded by a lion, than an army of lions commanded by a stag.
Proverb

18.
Management is about arranging and telling. Leadership is about nurturing and enhancing.
Peters, Thomas J.

19.
Ethics must begin at the top of an organization. It is a leadership issue and the chief executive must set the example.
Hennessy, Edward

20.
Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

21.
Most of the ladies and gentlemen who mourn the passing of the nation's leaders wouldn't know a leader if they saw one. If they had the bad luck to come across a leader, they would find out that he might demand something from them, and this impertinence would put an abrupt and indignant end to their wish for his return.
Lapham, Lewis H.

22.
Management is nothing more than motivating other people.
Lee Iacocca

23.
A prince should be slow to punish, and quick to reward.
Ovid

24.
He who dreads hostility too much is unfit to rule.
Seneca

25.
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

26.
Who has not served cannot command.
Florio, John

27.
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

28.
The golden rule for every business man is this: Put yourself in your customer's place.
Marden, Orison Swett

29.
Six traits of effective leaders: 1. Make others feel important 2. Promote a vision 3. Follow the golden rule 4. Admit mistakes 5. Criticize others only in private 6. Stay close to the action Example has more followers than reason. We unconsciously imitate what pleases us, and approximate to the characters we most admire.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

30.
Wise leaders generally have wise counselors because it takes a wise person themselves to distinguish them.
Diogenes of Sinope

31.
Time and money spent in helping men to do more for themselves is far better than mere giving.
Ford, Henry

32.
The crowd gives the leader new strength.
Evenius

33.
The best leaders of all, the people know not they exist. They turn to each other and say We did it ourselves.
Saying, Zen

34.
The well being of the people is the supreme law.

35.
Ronald Reagan has held the two most demeaning jobs in the country; President of the United States and radio broadcaster for the Chicago Cubs.
Will, George F.

36.
You cannot antagonize and influence at the same time.
Knox, John

37.
The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.
Churchill, Winston

38.
A good objective of leadership is to help those who are doing poorly to do well and to help those who are doing well to do even better.
Rohn, Jim

39.
The right man comes at the right time.
Proverb, Italian

40.
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

41.
Leadership is not a position. You are not a leader because you have the title of manager. Leadership is something that we earn from followers on a day to day basis.
The EMS Manager Newsletter

42.
Leaders must invoke an alchemy of great vision.
Kissinger, Henry

43.
Leadership is the challenge to be something more than average.
Rohn, Jim

44.
No one would have doubted his ability to reign had he never been emperor.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

45.
The penalty of leadership is loneliness.
Robinson, H. Wheeler

46.
A leader is one who, out of madness or goodness, volunteers to take upon himself the woe of the people. There are few men so foolish, hence the erratic quality of leadership in the world.
Updike, John

47.
In the great mass of our people there are plenty individuals of intelligence from among whom leadership can be recruited.
Hoover, Herbert Clark

48.
A leader who doesn't hesitate before he sends his nation into battle is not fit to be a leader.
Meir, Golda

49.
If you have fear of those that command you, spare those that obey you.
Azai, Rabbi Ben

50.
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
