Leadership

A leader is one who has the attributes that he walks as he talks. You can tell people that you are going to do certain things, that you are going to be honest with them, that you have integrity, but talk doesn't mean anything unless you really put it into action.

It used to be that the leader of an organization was the intellectual one who made all the decisions, who came up with good ideas, good thoughts and good suggestions. Today you will find that at all levels there is the ability you should be drawing on. Draw on the ability of all people.
