Are you a leader or a follower?
Here are some great motivational and inspirational quotes on leadership – then a cartoon strip to finish off…
An army of a thousand is easy to find, but, ah, how difficult to find a general. Chinese proverb
Leadership is not magnetic personality—that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not “making friends and influencing people”—that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a person’s vision to higher sights, the raising of a person’s performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations. – Peter Drucker
The most important quality in a leader is that of being acknowledged as such.
– Andre Maurois
Leadership consists not in degrees of technique but in traits of character; it requires moral rather than athletic or intellectual effort, and it imposes on both leader and follower alike the burdens of self-restraint.
– Lewis H. Lapham
A leader is most effective when people barely know he exists. When his work is done, his aim fulfilled, his troops will feel they did it themselves. Lao Tzu
