The secret to success is good leadership, and good leadership is all about making the lives of your team members or workers better.
Tony Dungy

To have long term success as a coach or in any position of leadership, you have to be obsessed in some way.
Pat Riley

Leadership is getting someone to do what they don't want to do, to achieve what they want to achieve.
Tom Landry

Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you're in control, they're in control.
Tom Landry

The school made it very clear that women were entitled to positions of authority. That sense of entitlement allowed us to feel that we have a natural place in leadership in the world. That gave me a mental and emotional confidence.
Linda Vester

The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.
Ken Blanchard

Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It's being able to take it as well as dish it out. That's the only way you're going to get respect from the players.
Larry Bird

Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you're not giving it all you've got.
Larry Bird

The art of leadership... consists in consolidating the attention of the people against a single adversary and taking care that nothing will split up that attention.

Margaret J. Wheatley

I believe that the capacity that any organisation needs is for leadership to appear anywhere it is needed, when it is needed.
Margaret J. Wheatley

I'm sad to report that in the past few years, ever since uncertainty became our insistent 21st century companion, leadership has taken a great leap backwards to the familiar territory of command and control.
Margaret J. Wheatley

I think it is quite dangerous for an organisation to think they can predict where they are going to need leadership. It needs to be something that people are willing to assume if it feels relevant, given the context of any situation.
Margaret J. Wheatley

Most people associate command and control leadership with the military.
Margaret J. Wheatley

I think what actually works best is local-level individual targeting of key leadership nodes.
