“Leadership is not a solo sport; if you lead alone, you are not leading.”

“You do not lead by hitting people over the head -- that's assault, not leadership.”

“Set your stage of successful leadership so that your team will have a place to operate from and lead with you.”

“Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.”

“You were born to lead as mothers and fathers because nowhere is righteous leadership more crucial than in the family. You were born to lead as priesthood and auxiliary leaders, as heads of communities, companies, and even nations. You were born to lead as men and women willing 'to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places' because that's what a true leader does.”
