Don’t take my word for it!

Following on from my previous post, I thought I’d share a few quotes on leadership..

“Leaders should only do what only they can do." - Sir John Harvey-Jones

“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” - John Quincy Adams

“The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.” - Kenneth Blanchard

"Being responsible sometimes means pissing people off." - General Colin Powell

"I believe the real difference between success and failure in a corporation can be very often traced to the question of how well the organization brings out the great energies and talents of its people." — Thomas J. Watson, Jr. A Business and its Beliefs (1963)

"The task of leadership is not to put greatness into people, but to elicit it, for the greatness is there already." — John Buchan

I hope this inspires!
