Leadership Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Leadership

1.
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

2.
If you have fear of those that command you, spare those that obey you.
Azai, Rabbi Ben

3.
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

4.
A crown, golden in show is but a wreath of thorns.
Milton, John

5.
We will make them think it's their idea. That's how all great leaders fool people.
Laura Preble

6.
That is no use at all. What I want is men who will support me when I am in the wrong.
Melbourne, Lord

7.
Tell a person they are brave and you help them become so.
Carlyle, Thomas

8.
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

9.
Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.
Schwarzkopf, Norman

10.
Education is the mother of leadership.
Willkie, Wendell L.

11.
Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

12.
I learned that a great leader is a man who has the ability to get other people to do what they don't want to do and like it.
Truman, Harry S

13.
I've always found that the speed of the boss is the speed of the team.
Iacocca, Lee

14.
The right man comes at the right time.
Proverb, Italian

15.
Doing what's right isn't the problem. It is knowing what's right.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

16.
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

17.
You do not lead by hitting people over the head -- that's assault, not leadership.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

18.
I'm their leader, I've got to follow them.
Ledru-Rollin, Alexandre

19.
The ability to deal with people is as purchasable a commodity as sugar or coffee and I will pay more for that ability than for any other under the sun.
Rockefeller, John D.

20.
Outstanding leaders go out of the way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it's amazing what they can accomplish.
Walton, Sam

21.
The crowd gives the leader new strength.
Evenius

22.
It is a characteristic of all movements and crusades that the psychopathic element rises to the top.
Lindner, Robert

23.
Anyone can steer the ship when the sea is calm.
Syrus, Publilius

24.
Reason and judgment are the qualities of a leader.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

25.
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.

26.
The wealth of kings is in the affections of their subjects.
Motto

27.
Management is nothing more than motivating other people.
Lee Iacocca

28.
The first thing a great person does, is make us realize the insignificance of circumstance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

29.
Those who can command themselves command others.
Hazlitt, William

30.
So much of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work.
Peter Drucker

31.
When we think we lead we are most led.
Byron, Lord

32.
I am a leader by default, only because nature does not allow a vacuum.
Tutu, Bishop Desmond

33.
The measure of a great leader, is their success in bringing everyone around to their opinion twenty years later.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

34.
I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.
Gandhi, Mahatma

35.
Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
John F. Kennedy

36.
The chief executive who knows his strengths and weaknesses as a leader is likely to be far more effective than the one who remains blind to them. He also is on the road to humility -- that priceless attitude of openness to life that can help a manager absorb mistakes, failures, or personal shortcomings.
Adair, John

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.
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.

39.
If you want to be comfortable -- take an easy job. If you aspire to leadership, take off your coat.

40.
When a blind man bears the standard, pity those who follow.
Proverb, French

41.
Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you're not giving it all you've got. Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It's being able to take it as well as dish it out. That's the only way you're going to get respect from the players.
Bird, Larry

42.
Great leaders understand human behavior rather than the cybernetics of any function.
Schorr, James

43.
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

44.
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.

45.
If you lead a country like Britain, a strong country, a country which has taken a lead in world affairs in good times and in bad, a country that is always reliable, then you have to have a touch of iron about you.
Thatcher, Margaret

46.
The highest of distinctions is service to others.
King George VI

47.
Wise leaders generally have wise counselors because it takes a wise person themselves to distinguish them.
Diogenes of Sinope

48.
A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.
Glasgow, Arnold H.

49.
Delegating work works, provided the one delegating works, too.
Half, Robert

50.
It is a great pity when the one who should be the head figure is a mere figure head.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon
