Quotes on LEADERSHIP to ponder upon

*(from left) Lopes, Hadi & me during the UKEC Council meeting last year in October

I came across this list of a great leader's criteria that I wish to share with everyone here:

  1. The LEADER must have a dream larger than those he/she leads.
  2. The LEADER must have an attitude superior than those he/she leads.
  3. The LEADER is responsible and admits when he/she made a mistake.
  4. The LEADER is a decision maker.
  5. The LEADER puts those he/she leads first.
  6. The LEADER sets the example by being in front of the pack.
  7. The LEADER displays a commitment to integrity and character.
  8. The LEADER strives in excellence in all things.
  9. The LEADER displays a commitment in personal growth.
  10. The LEADER has the highest level of persistence and determination.

Here's a quote which I got that exemplifies the courage behind an inspirational leader:

"I will persist until I succeed. I was not delivered unto this world in defeat, nor does failure course in my veins. I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd. I am a lion and I refuse to talk, to walk, or to sleep with the sheep. I will hear not those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious. Let them join the sheep. The slaughterhouse of failure is NOT in my destiny!"


Learn to lead, for you will then succeed!

one more thing is: the leader's actions always speak louder than his words..

boleh buat quote cmni tak.. "speak smart, not errr long?"

just look at those good leader out there, every single word they said, was chosen wisely, there is no need to comes out with two pages speech, 2 lines is good enuf if those lines are able to inspire 200 people; kan? (yaa! 2 pages of speech inspire 2000 ppl to sleep!) ~wallahu'alam~
