3 Leaders are people who do the right thing; managers are people who do things right. Professor Warren G. Bennis

4 Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it. Dwight D. Eisenhower

5 You young lieutenants have to realize that your platoon is like a piece of spaghetti. You cannot push it. You have to get out in front and pull it. General George S. Patton

6 The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it. Theodore Roosevelt

7 All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership. John Kenneth Galbraith

8 The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been. Henry Kissinger

9 Leadership is intentional influence. Michael McKinney

10 Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the selfesteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it's amazing what they can accomplish. Sam Walton

11 You cannot be a leader, and ask other people to follow you, unless you know how to follow, too. Sam Rayburn

12 The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant. Max DePree

13 Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall. Stephen R. Covey

14 As a leader, you're probably not doing a good job unless your employees can do a good impression of you when you're not around. Patrick Lencioni

15 The older I get the less I listen to what people say and the more I look at what they do. Andrew Carnegie

16 My own definition of leadership is this: The capacity and the will to rally men and women to a common purpose and the character which inspires confidence. General Montgomery

17 Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others. Jack Welch

18 The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it. Theodore Roosevelt

19 "Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them." John Maxwell

20 Leadership is about people and the intimate, intricate relationships between them. Chuck Ferguson

26 Common Leadership Styles

27 Autocratic This leader has absolute power over his or her employees or team. Employees and team members have little opportunity for making suggestions, even if these would be in the team or organization s interest.

28 These leaders work by the book, ensuring that their staff follow procedures exactly. Bureaucratic

29 Charismatic This leader injects huge doses of enthusiasm into his or her team, and is very energetic in driving others forward.

30 Democratic or Participative This style invites other members of the team to contribute to the decision-making process.

31 Laissez-faire This French phrase means leave it be and is used to describe a leader who leaves his or her colleagues to get on with their work.

32 People-oriented or Relations-Oriented This leader is totally focused on organizing, supporting and developing the people in the leader s team.

33 Servant This term, coined by Robert Greenleaf in the 1970s, describes a leader who is often not formally recognized as such. When someone, at any level within an organization, leads simply by virtue of meeting the needs of his or her team, he or she is described as a servant leader.

34 Task-oriented The style focuses only on getting the job done, and can be quite autocratic. He or she will actively define the work and the roles required, put structures in place, plan, organize and monitor.

35 Transformational This is a leader who inspires his or her team constantly with a shared vision of the future. Transformational leaders are highly visible, and spend a lot of time communicating. They don t necessarily lead from the front, as they tend to delegate responsibility among their team.
