Quotes about leadership
Few things help an individual more than to place responsibility upon him and to let him know that you trust him.
Booker Washington
Just as the real basics of human nature do not change from one generation to another, so the real basics of human leadership do not change from one leader to another - from one field to the next - but remain always and everywhere the same.
William Holler
Leaders are visionaries with a poorly developed sense of fear and no concept of the odds against them.

Dwight Eisenhower
If you wish to succeed in managing and controlling others - learn to manage and control yourself.

A gentle word, a kind look, a good-natured smile can work wonders and accomplish miracles. There is a secret pride in every human heart that revolts at tyranny. You may order and drive an individual, but you cannot make him respect you.
William Hazlitt
A leader has two important characteristics; first, he is going somewhere; second, he is able to persuade other people to go with him.
