The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.

It is, after all, the responsibility of the expert to operate the familiar and that of the leader to transcend it.

Leadership is unlocking people's potential to become better.

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

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

Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody expects of you. Never excuse yourself.

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.

Leadership cannot really be taught. It can only be learned.

Leaders must encourage their organizations to dance to forms of music yet to be heard.

My attitude is never to be satisfied, never enough, never.
