Message >> Passion >> Power My definition of a leader, is a man who can persuade people to do what they don't want to do, or do what they're too lazy to do, and like it. Harry S. Truman Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men. Lao Tze The ultimate test of practical leadership is the realization of intended, real change that meets people’s enduring needs. James MacGregor Burns You cannot manage men into battle. You manage things; you lead people. Grace Hopper, Admiral, U. S. Navy The superior leader gets things done with very little motion. He imparts instruction not through many words but through a few deeds. He keeps informed about everything but interferes hardly at all. He is a catalyst, and though things would not get done well if he weren't’t there, when they succeed he takes no credit. And because he takes no credit, credit never leaves him. Lao Tse, Tao Te Ching Leadership occurs when one person induces others to work toward some predetermined objectives. Massie Leadership is the ability of a superior to influence the behavior of a subordinate or group and persuade them to follow a particular course of action. Chester Bernard Leadership is the art to of influencing and directing people in such a way that will win their obedience, confidence, respect and loyal cooperation in achieving common objectives . U. S. Air Force The first job of a leader is to define a vision for the organization.... Leadership of the capacity to translate vision into reality. Warren Bennis, President, University of Cincinnati, Managers have subordinates—leaders have followers. Murray Johannsen
