Management is doing things right leadership is doing the right things.

Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.

I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles but today it means getting along with people.

Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked leadership is defined by results not attributes.

It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

Harvard is first and foremost a university and not a consulting operation and our job here is to teach and to research and to create knowledge on Asia in conjunction and in cooperation with scholars as well as with political intellectual and cultural leaders in Asia.

And I'm walking along and we're laughing kidding joking and see he understood the leader the one we called the leader had some knowledge of English although limited.

Most North Americans know that human-caused global warming is real even if political leaders don't always reflect or act on that knowledge.

My philosophy of leadership is to surround myself with good people who have ability judgment and knowledge but above all a passion for service.
