"Leaders shouldn't attach moral significance to their ideas: Do that, and you can't compromise."
Quote by -Peter Drucker
"The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I." And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I." They don't think "I." They think "we"; they think "team." They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit. This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done."
Quote by -Peter Drucker
"I accept what God blessed me to be: a leader, a quarterback. It comes with a lot of fame, a lot of awards, a lot of things."

Quote by -Marvin Lewis

Quote by -Bill Gates
May I stress the need for courageous, intelligent, and dedicated leadership… Leaders of sound integrity. Leaders not in love with publicity, but in love with justice. Leaders not in love with money, but in love with humanity. Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the greatness of the cause.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
To be an effective leader, you have to have a manipulative streak - you have to figure out the people working for you and give each tasks that will take advantage of his strength.
