Motivational Quotes
Leadership
Perhaps in His wisdom the Almighty is trying to show us that a leader may chart the way, may point out the road to lasting peace, but that many leaders and many peoples must do the building.
Best Quotes about Leadership
Men shrink less from offending one who inspires love than one who inspires fear.
Machiavelli, Niccolo
Anyone can steer the ship when the sea is calm.
Syrus, Publilius
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
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
A leader is a person you will follow to a place you wouldn't go by yourself.
Barker, Joel A.
The real leader has no need to lead -- he is content to point the way.
Miller, Henry
Don't tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.
Patton, George S.
Wise leaders generally have wise counselors because it takes a wise person themselves to distinguish them.
Diogenes of Sinope
Leadership is the challenge to be something more than average.
Rohn, Jim
The golden rule for every business man is this: Put yourself in your customer's place.
Marden, Orison Swett
I must follow the people. Am I not their leader?
Disraeli, Benjamin
No one would have doubted his ability to reign had he never been emperor.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius
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.
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.
All business success rests on something labeled a sale, which at least momentarily weds company and customer.
Peters, Thomas J.
There is no necessary connection between the desire to lead and the ability to lead, and even less the ability to lead somewhere that will be to the advantage of the led
Evans, Bergen
That is no use at all. What I want is men who will support me when I am in the wrong.
Melbourne, Lord
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
Leadership is an opportunity to serve. It is not a trumpet call to self-importance.
Walters, J. Donald
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
The secret of a leader lies in the tests he has faced over the whole course of his life and the habit of action he develops in meeting those tests.
Sheehy, Gail
I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
Churchill, Winston
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
I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.
Lao-Tzu
When we think we lead we are most led.
Byron, Lord
True leadership must be for the benefit of the followers, not the enrichment of the leaders.
Townsend, Robert
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
Impatience is the cause of most of our irregularities and extravagances Command by obeying.
Motto
In the great mass of our people there are plenty individuals of intelligence from among whom leadership can be recruited.
Hoover, Herbert Clark
If you have fear of those that command you, spare those that obey you.
Azai, Rabbi Ben
Each person must decide for himself what he wants each day. As a leader, I will expose you to the options and the likely consequences of those options. I'll even share my opinion if asked, but I'll never confuse it with the opinion, which simply doesn't exist.
Dyer, Wayne
Leadership appears to be the art of getting others to want to do something you are convinced should be done.
Packard, Vance
Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you're in control, they're in control.
Landry, Tom
No affection and a great brain, these are the people to command the world.
Disraeli, Benjamin
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
Great leaders understand human behavior rather than the cybernetics of any function.
Schorr, James
Leadership is a serving relationship that has the effect of facilitating human development.
Ward, Ted
You do not lead by hitting people over the head -- that's assault, not leadership.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.
Leadership is the wise use of power. Power is the capacity to translate intention into reality and sustain it.
Bennis, Warren
The wealth of kings is in the affections of their subjects.
Motto
A leader knows what's best to do; a manager knows merely how best to do it.
Adelman, Ken
The high sentiments always win in the end, the leaders who offer blood, toil, tears, and sweat always get more out of their followers than those who offer safety and a good time. When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic.
Orwell, George
Blessed are the people whose leaders can look destiny in the eye without flinching but also without attempting to play God.
Kissinger, Henry
Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
John F. Kennedy
Eagles don't flock, you have to find them one at a time.
Perot, H. Ross
Do what is right, not what you think the high headquarters wants or what you think will make you look good.
Schwarzkopf, Norman
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
It's important for the explorer to be willing to be led astray.
Oech, Roger Von
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
Our chief want in life is somebody who will make us do what we can.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
