1. The objective of leadership is not to become merely
successful. The objective of business is for your
organization to grow to it’s maximum potential.
2. Management can help you become successful but it will
take leadership to get to your maximum potential.
Leadership makes up the difference between success and
potential.
3. Leadership is developed, not discovered. Most aspects
of leadership can be learned. A balance of management
and leadership skills is important, but leadership must
come first because it deals with vision and direction.
4. The law of attraction states that leaders attract who
they are not who they want. The more highly developed a
leader, the more highly developed leaders they’ll be able
to attract.
5. Leaders make it an ongoing discipline of growing
personally. When they stop growing, they plateau and so
do their people and their organization.
PRINCIPLE #1

was a business owner
spending over 40 hours each

a bad boss.“The two main
problems we have are
