Go to the people.
Learn from them.
Live with them.

Start with what they know.
Build with what they have.

The best of leaders are those that, when the job is done,

when the task is accomplished,

the people will say

we have done it ourselves.

We need a new generation of leaders. And we need it now.....It’s difficult, looking around, to even remember what leadership is. We’re surrounded by people who are expert at winning — elections, deals, titles, bonuses, profit. And often, we’re told: they’re the ones we should look up to — because it’s the spoils ... that really matter. But you know and I know: mere winners are not true leaders — not just because gaming broken systems is nothing but an empty charade of living; but because life is not a game.

It isn’t about what you have, and how much — but what you do, and why — if you’re to live a life that matters.

Leadership — true leadership —is a lost art. Leaders lead us not to a place — but to a different kind of destination: to our better, truer selves. It is an act of love in the face of an uncertain world.

Perhaps, then, that’s why there’s so little leadership around: because we’re afraid to even say the word love — let alone to feel it, weigh it, measure it, allow it, admit it, believe it, and so be transformed by it

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say “I.” And that’s not because they have trained themselves not to say “I.” They don’t think “I.”
They think “we”; they think “team.”

Leadership is about empowering others to achieve things they did not think possible. Leadership is about articulating a vision of the world that does not yet exist. Then asking help from others to ensure that vision happens.

Don't ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who are alive.
