What you always do before you make a decision is consult. The best public policy is made when you are listening to people who are going to be impacted. Then, once policy is determined, you call on them to help you sell it.

Ernest Becker:
It is not so much that man is a herd animal, said Freud, but that he is a horde animal led by a chief.

Kenneth Blanchard:
The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.

Peter Drucker:
The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I." And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I." They don't think "I." They think "we"; they think "team." They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit…. This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done.

Peter F. Drucker:
Leaders shouldn't attach moral significance to their ideas: Do that, and you can't compromise.

Ralph Nader:
I start with the premise that the function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.

Abraham Lincoln did not go to Gettysburg having commissioned a poll to find out what would sell in Gettysburg. There were no people with percentages for him, cautioning him about this group or that group or what they found in exit polls a year earlier. When will we have the courage of Lincoln?

Robert Greenleaf:
Good leaders must first become good servants.

Robert Louis Stevenson:
Keep your fears to yourself, but share your inspiration with others.

Rosalynn Carter:
A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go but ought to be.

Theodore Hesburgh:
The very essence of leadership is that you have to have a vision.

Tony Blair:
The art of leadership is saying no, not yes. It is very easy to say yes.

Unknown:
Some leaders are born women.

Vince Lombardi:
Leaders aren't born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal.

Walter Lippman:
The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men the conviction and the will to carry on.

Warren Bennis:
The manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why.

Winston Churchill:
The price of greatness is responsibility.
