Leadership Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Leadership

Those who can command themselves command others.
Hazlitt, William

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

3.

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

5.
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

6.
In the great mass of our people there are plenty individuals of intelligence from among whom leadership can be recruited.
Hoover, Herbert Clark

7.
I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
Churchill, Winston

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

9.
The first task of a leader is to keep hope alive.
Batten, Joe

Tead, Orway

11.
Leadership appears to be the art of getting others to want to do something you are convinced should be done.
Packard, Vance

12.
'Tis a dainty thing to command, though 'twere but a flock of sheep.
Cervantes, Miguel De

13.
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.
Roosevelt, Eleanor

14.
Men shrink less from offending one who inspires love than one who inspires fear.
Machiavelli, Niccolo

15.
Reason and judgment are the qualities of a leader.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

16.
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

17.
He who dreads hostility too much is unfit to rule.
Seneca

18.
It is a characteristic of all movements and crusades that the psychopathic element rises to the top.
Lindner, Robert

19.
If I advance, follow me! If I retreat, kill me! If I die, avenge me!
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

Tutu, Bishop Desmond

Lincoln, Abraham

When a blind man bears the standard, pity those who follow.
Proverb, French

24.
A leader is a person you will follow to a place you wouldn't go by yourself.
Barker, Joel A.

25.
The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men the conviction and the will to carry on. The genius of a good leader is to leave behind him a situation which common sense, without the grace of genius, can deal with successfully.
Lippmann, Walter

26.
Keep cool and you will command everyone.
Justinian

27.
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.

28.
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.

29.
Leadership is the wise use of power. Power is the capacity to translate intention into reality and sustain it.
Bennis, Warren

30.
A leader is someone who helps improve the lives of other people or improve the system they live under.
Ervin, Sam

31.
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

32.
Managers are people who do things right; leaders are people who do the right thing.
Bennis, Warren

33.
No affection and a great brain, these are the people to command the world.
Disraeli, Benjamin

34.
Right or wrong, the customer is always right.
Field, Marshall

35.
I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.
Gandhi, Mahatma

36.
Ethics must begin at the top of an organization. It is a leadership issue and the chief executive must set the example.
Hennessy, Edward

37.
Leadership is action, not position.
Mcgannon, Donald H.

38.
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.

39.
Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.
Schwarzkopf, Norman

40.
It's important for the explorer to be willing to be led astray.
Oech, Roger Von

41.
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.

42.
Justice is the first virtue of those who command, and stops the complaints of those who obey.
Diderot, Denis

43.
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!

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

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

49.
When placed in command -- take charge.
Schwarzkopf, Norman

50.
Morale is faith in the man at the top.
Johnston, Albert Sidney
