Leaders who are kind of insecure or egocentric, they basically sabotage themselves.

People who add value to others do so intentionally. I say that because to add value, leaders must give of themselves, and that rarely occurs by accident.

All good leaders are connectors. They relate well and make people feel confident about themselves and their leader.

Leaders who fail to prune their pride will meet demise. That's not a guess, it's a guarantee. With pride, it's not a matter of 'if' we will fall, but 'when.' There are no exceptions.

Growth is the great separator between those who succeed and those who do not. When I see a person beginning to separate themselves from the pack, it's almost always due to personal growth.

Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.
