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

A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.

I'm not a natural leader. I'm too intellectual I'm too abstract I think too much.

Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.

The real leader has no need to lead - he is content to point the way.

People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision.

No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit for doing it.

Time is neutral and does not change things. With courage and initiative, leaders change things.

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

The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been.
