The most effective form of leadership

is born out of the sincere desire and

proven ability to make a
positive contribution.

Those who lead best are those

for whom leadership itself
is not the primary aim.
True leadership is not embodied
in a position or title.

True leadership arises from

an exemplary life of making positive,
valuable contributions that inspire
others to do the same.
The most successful leaders
have no interest in telling
others what to do.

Successful leaders are those who

promote and support conditions
in which each person can act
with effectiveness and experience
fulfillment in his or her
own special way.
Great leaders are not those
who claim to have all the answers
or to solve every problem.

Great leaders lead by example

rather than by proclamation.
To be a leader, be a shining example.

Do precisely that which you would

lead others to do,
and do it spectacularly.
Leadership at its best enlarges upon the
sincere and productive efforts of the leader.

Make those efforts the best they can be,

and they'll result in true,
effective leadership.
