Five Leadership Thoughts

There are millions of internet sites and books full of leadership messages, and not all of it is worth replicating here. However, I do enjoy capturing in my book of quotes messages that I find thought-provoking and worth sharing with my readers.

Sharing here 5 of those ideas that I captured in the last couple of months.

To help others develop, start with yourself! When the boss acts like a little god and tells everyone else they need to improve, that behavior can be copied at every level of management. Every level then points out how the level below it needs to change. The end result: No one gets much better.

Marshall Goldsmith

Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.

John F Kennedy

Leaders don’t create followers, they create more leaders.

Tom Peters

Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.

Helen Keller
