‘Empowerment is something someone gives you. Self leadership is what you do to make it work.’

‘Ultimately, it’s in your best interest to accept responsibility for getting what you need to succeed in the workplace.’

‘Not realizing your own power could be your greatest assumed constraint.’

‘When your competence is low, you need direction; when your commitment is low, you need support.’

‘A person who does not have a goal is used by someone who does.’

‘The two most powerful words to get what you need to succeed are, ‘I NEED.”

‘A leader is anyone who can give you the support and direction you need to achieve your goal.’

‘Self leaders challenge assumed constraints, activate their points of power, and are proactive about getting what they need to succeed.’
