It's always the organizations that are resource constrained that come up with the good ideas to win.

All the great organizations in the world, all have a sense of why that organization does what it does.

The leader's job is to lead and protect. Not have all the answers, not know everything to do, not to micromanage and tell people what to do or how to do it. A leader's job is to lead and protect. That's their job, and it's the people within the organization - their job is to get the work done.

Leadership is a choice. It's not a rank, it's a choice. I know many people who are at the top of their organization who have authority. We have to do what they say because they have authority over us. But they're not leaders. We wouldn't follow them. They may be at the top of the company but they're not leaders.

Every single organization - or career, for that matter - exists on three levels: WHAT you do, HOW you do it and WHY you do it.

Organizations should say and do the things they ACTUALLY believe.

Those who lead inspire us Whether they are individuals or organizations, we follow those who lead not because we have to but because we want to.

Truly human leadership protects an organization from the internal rivalries that can shatter a culture. When we have to protect ourselves from each other, the whole organization suffers. But when trust and cooperation thrive internally, we pull together and the organization grows stronger as a result.

Great leaders and great organizations are good at seeing what most of us can’t see. They are good at giving us things we would never think of asking for.
