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

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

Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.

You have to have your heart in the business and the business in your heart.

The speed of the leader is the speed of the gang.

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

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

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

You have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.

High expectations are the key to everything.
