‘True leadership has nothing to do with one’s level in the organization.’

‘A key question you must continuously ask yourself is ‘Am I a self-serving leader or a serving leader?’

‘A person can serve without leading, but a leader can’t lead without serving.’

‘It’s the leader’s job to make time today to ensure that there is a tomorrow.’

‘The best leaders invest in the development of their people.’

‘As leaders, we must be willing to accept the fact that there are some things that certain individuals will never learn to do well.’

‘Helping people leverage their strengths is one of the most rewarding parts of the leader’s role.’

‘You must gain the trust of your people. If you don’t have their trust, you’ll never be a great leader.’

‘People who want to be great leaders must embrace an attitude of service to others.’

‘The best teachers are always those who know they haven’t got it all figured out.’

‘We must not only say it-we must show it.’
