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

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

A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.

Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.

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

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

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

The great leaders have always stage-managed their effects.

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