On leadership

"The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office."
--Dwight D. Eisenhower

"Ninety percent of leadership is the ability to communicate something people want."
--Dianne Feinstein

"One of the tests of leadership is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes an emergency."
--Arnold H. Glasow

"Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results not attributes."
--Peter Drucker

"That is what leadership is all about: staking your ground ahead of where opinion is and convincing people, not simply following the popular opinion of the moment."
--Doris Kearns Goodwin
