I'm trying to remind myself of the things I used to use and believe. So here's a compilation of my favorite quotes from leaders. I'm hoping it reminds me to get things done the way I need to.
It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.
Nelson Mandela
Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.
Peter Drucker
Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.
Colin Powell
You don't lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.
Ken Blanchard
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
Harry S. Truman
Get mad, then get over it.
Colin Powell
“Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers who can cut through the argument debate and doubt to offer a solution everybody can understand.”
― Colin Powell
