"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - John Quincy Adams

"The most valuable "currency" of any organization is the initiative and creativity of its members. Every leader has the solemn moral responsibility to develop these to the maximum in all his people. This is the leader's highest priority." W. Edwards Deming in Principle Centred Leadership.

'Employees are the face of a company. When they are engaged and committed to the organisation, they are more likely to deliver the brand promise - whether it is customer service, innovation, or others. A company that remains true to its brand promise receives more favourable consumer opinions and enjoys higher levels of credibility and profitability than those organisations that waver from their promises." - Ibed.

"A leader is a dealer in hope. " - Napoleon

"A client-centric organisation should be big enough to matter, yet small enough to care." - Chris Stevens, MD, LifeAssist

"One size fits none." anon

"The goal of many leaders is to get people to think more highly of the leader. The goal of a great leader is to help people to think more highly of themselves." - J Carla Nortcutt

"To achieve quality, service, and rapid response, leaders must utilise all available talent. They must find ways to inspire, involve, and empower employees. They must create a work environment that encourages commitment, innovation, and cooperation. Instead of evaluating, leaders now coach. Instead of doing, they delegate. Instead of telling, they facilitate. No one is expected to boss anyone. Everyone is expected to participate." - Dr Suzanne Willis Zoglio in The Participative Leader, p. v.
