The law of process says — leaders develop daily, not in a day.
The single biggest way to impact an organization is to focus on leadership development. There is almost no limit to the potential of an organization that recruits good people, raises them up as leaders and continually develops them.
An election marks the end of the affair; it puts paid to the seduction of the many by the few. Pretty words, fulsome promises. We wind up married, but to whom, to what? We cannot always predict with certainty the future leader from the winning candidate. Some men grow in the job; others are diminished by its demands and its grandeur.
Great leaders encourage leadership development. By openly developing themselves
I start with the premise that the function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.
It takes leaders to grow other leaders.
Perhaps the central task of the leader of leaders thus becomes the development of other leaders.
Everyone wins when a leader gets better
the best leaders try to train their followers themselves to become leaders. ... they wish to be leaders of leaders.
Creating organizations that value a growth mindset can create contexts in which more people grow into the knowledgeable, visionary, and responsible leaders we need.
I think it's very important, I think for any leader as you go through a career you have to learn the leadership lessons.
Great leaders, the research shows, are made as they gradually acquire, in the course of their lives and careers, the competencies that make them so effective. The competencies can be learned by any leader, at any point.
Grow a leader-grow the organization. A company cannot grow without until its leaders grow within.
My mother did what all great leaders do: She sparked the growth of future leaders.
