Making those around you feel invisible is the opposite of leadership.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't know what leadership is. You can't touch it. You can't feel it. It's not tangible. But I do know this: you recognize it when you see it.
If leadership is something that is in-your-face, then that is a different type of leadership.
One secret of leadership is that the mind of a leader never turns off. Leaders even when they are sightseers or spectators, are active; not passive observers.
The very essence of leadership is that you have to have vision. You can't blow an uncertain trumpet.
I think the currency of leadership is transparency. You've got to be truthful. I don't think you should be vulnerable every day, but there are moments where you've got to share your soul and conscience with people and show them who you are, and not be afraid of it.
Leadership appears to be the art of getting others to want to do something you are convinced should be done.
One thing that somebody told me is that leadership is a lonely role - some people can do it, and some people can't.
Leaders who are kind of insecure or egocentric, they basically sabotage themselves.
The real rulers in Washington are invisible, and exercise power from behind the scenes.
Leadership is something I was born with.
