“Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.” –Warren Bennis

“Leadership is the process of persuasion or example by which an individual (or leadership team) induces a group to pursue objectives held by the leader or shared by the leader and his or her followers.”–John W. Gardner

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” –John Maxwell

“Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you’re in control, they’re in control.” –Tom Landry
