Leadership Tips, Quotes, and Examples.

[James]

Use this thread to post any leadership tips, stories, examples, discussions or even quotes that comment or offer suggestions on any aspects of leadership, management, and just getting things done.

I posted this thread so that we can comment freely about anything when there isn't specific thread about a topic. And maybe we'll even generate some discussion threads out of this.

So if you think of something interesting that deserves a lot of discussion feel free to post it as a new thread.

My favorite quote that can be related to leadership is by Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"Trust men and they will be true to you; treat them great and they will show themselves great"

~Saffy

Leadership can mean being the most popular person when you're elected, but the least popular when you're actually in office.

I've always liked the quote in Penguin Trax's signature:

"If you have to go around telling everyone you're in charge you're not much of a leader."

[EXColony]

"Being a leader is like being a lady, if you have to tell people you are - you're not."

My one piece of advice - lead by example - remember people (brothers, girls, administrators, IFC) will be watching you.
