Leadership

«Leadership is a word and a concept that has been more argued than almost any other I know. I am not one of the desk-pounding types that likes to stick out his jaw and look like he is bossing the show. I would far rather get behind and, recognizing the frailties and the requirements of human nature, would rather try to persuade a man to go along, because once I have persuaded him, he will stick. If I scare him, he will stay just as long as he is scared, and then he is gone.»
«Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.»
«Leadership is an opportunity to serve. It is not a trumpet call to self-importance.»
«Leadership is an interactive conversation that pulls people toward becoming comfortable with the language of personal responsibility and commitment.»
Author: John G Agno | About: Leadership | Keywords: interactive, pulls
«Leadership is applicable to all facets of life: a competency that you can learn to expand your perspective, set the context of a goal, understand the dynamics of human behavior and take the initiative to get to where you want to be.»
«Leadership is much more an art, a belief, a condition of the heart, than a set of things to do. The visible signs of artful leadership are expressed, ultimately, in its practice.»
«Leadership is liberating people to do what is required of them in the most effective and humane way possible.»
«Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.»
«Leadership is getting someone to do what they don't want to do, to achieve what they want to achieve.»
Author: Tom Landry | About: Leadership | Keywords: achieve, getting, leadership
«Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you're in control, they're in control.»
