– Sometimes the strongest thing to do is to turn the other cheek. Sometimes it is to stand your ground.

– Solicited applause is seldom given genuinely.

– The best opportunities seldom come wrapped neatly in a package with a bow on top. They usually come with work. Get your hands dirty work.

– The best leaders are often the ones smart enough to get out of the way of smarter people.

– Part of leadership is the willingness to make hard decisions no one else on the team wants to make.

– Change always invokes an emotion. The best change agents recognize and respond accordingly.

– The leader has a responsibility to do the right thing for the organization, regardless of whether it brings instant popularity.

– The more you say “I” the less your team will feel a part of “we.”

– Some of a leader’s best work is not what the leader does but what he or she inspires others to do.

– Without the right systems in place, the best visions will eventually suffer. Systematize what you want and need repeated.

– One of the most important disciplines of a leader is the discipline of rest.
