…having people follow out of deep respect is the height of leadership.

The reality is that no one is indispensable. Worse, allowing others to become dependent does little more than satisfy a leader’s ego.

The first step in developing leaders is to have a desire to develop people so that they can succeed without you.

If you want to develop people, you must help them discover and build upon their strengths.

One of the keys to developing leaders – at any level – is seeing people not as they are or as others see them, but as they could be.

Seeing what could be – and helping to make it reality – takes vision, imagination, skill, and commitment.

…a good inner circle will allow leaders to be themselves, but inner circle members will also tell them the truth about themselves.

Leadership is influence. Leverage it to add value to others.

Leaving a successor is the last great gift a leader can give an organization.

…as you age, you realize there’s much more to life than success. You want to make a difference.
