A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

The best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.

In the simplest terms, a leader is one who knows where she wants and gets up and goes.

People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision.

If you are a leader, you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives it - young or old, successful or less-than-successful, unknown or famous - is changed by it.

As a leader, the first person I need to lead is me. The first person that I should try to change is me.
