High expectations are the key to everything.

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

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

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

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

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

If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade.

The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.

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

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