Leadership Is What You Do When No One Is Watching You

Leadership is not what you say. It is what you do. Leadership is not what you say. It is how you say it. Leadership is what you do when no one is watching you. Leadership is not about what you have. It is about what you give. It is how you make other people feel.

According to Vince Molinaro, ‘Leadership is a decision- Make it. Leadership is an obligation. Step up. Leadership is hard. Get tough. Leadership is a community. Connect.’

No organization is perfect. ‘When organization let us down, Leadership is disconnected. Leadership is disappointing. Leadership is disgraceful.’

So what does leadership mean to you?
