Good leadership consists of showing average people how to do the work of superior people.

Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

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

Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.

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

Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.

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

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.

I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.
