“Leadership is not magnetic personality; that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not ‘making friends and influencing people;’ that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a person’s vision to higher sights, the raising of a person’s performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.”
Peter F. Drucker
