Leadership
(page 2)
Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It's about impact, influence and inspiration. Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work, and you have to inspire team-mates and customers.
The art of communication is the language of leadership.
Leadership is a choice, not a position.
Leadership is not about the next election, it's about the next generation.
Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.
Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.
No matter how good you think you are as a leader, my goodness, the people around you will have all kinds of ideas for how you can get better. So for me, the most fundamental thing about leadership is to have the humility to continue to get feedback and to try to get better — because your job is to try to help everybody else get better.
For any movement to gain momentum, it must start with a small action. This action becomes multiplied by the masses, and is made tangible when leadership changes course due to the weight of the movement's voice.
Every time you have to speak, you are auditioning for leadership.
Leadership is about doing the right thing, even if it going against a vast number of naysayers and mediocre people.
There are good leaders who actively guide and bad leaders who actively misguide. Hence, leadership is about persuasion, presentation and people skills.
Leadership contains certain elements of good management, but it requires that you inspire, that you build durable trust. For an organization to be not just good but to win, leadership means evoking participation larger than the job description, commitment deeper than any job contract's wording.
This is about systemic, institutional corruption, not personality. To ask the Democratic leadership to clean things up would be like asking the old Soviet bureaucracy under Brezhnev to reform itself. It ain't going to happen.
The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.
Leadership is not a popularity contest; it's about leaving your ego at the door. The name of the game is to lead without a title.
Leadership is inspiring extraordinary people to step up and serve their country.
The world needs new leadership, but the new leadership is about working together.
Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.
Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall.
