“Nobody works for you, everybody works with you…the greatest leaders can get other people to do something they never thought they could do.”
“Leadership is the quiet resolve to steward a mission greater than yourself—where vision is rooted in values, strategy is built to endure, and every action invites others to rise with you.”
“One of the best definitions of leadership I’ve heard is that “leaders make situations and people better.” It reminds me of what I learned at Chaminade so long ago: think creatively, lift people’s spirits and – above all – serve others.”
Lead With Purpose.
