When you get right down to it, one of the most important tasks of a leader is to eliminate his people’s excuse for failure. ~ Robert Townsend

Only dead fish swim with the stream all the time. ~ Linda Ellerbee, Take Big Bites

The best thing you can give as a leader is a reason to trust. People want to trust. They're hungry for it. But they're selective. They'll only give it to a motivator, a communicator, a teacher, a real person. Someone who in good times and bad always does the right thing. ~ Jeffrey R. Immelt, Dartmouth,2004

The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between the two, the leader must become a servant and a debtor. ~ Max DePree, Leadership is an Art
