"Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The
leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to
others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a
message doesn't even matter."
— Gilbert Amelio!
President and CEO of National Semiconductor Corp.
