The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.

Management is about arranging and telling. Leadership is about nurturing and enhancing.

When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves.'

Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.

A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.

Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked leadership is defined by results not attributes.

Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.

Making good decisions is a crucial skill at every level.

A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.

Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.
