"Trust is the lubrication that makes it possible for organizations to work." ― Warren G. Bennis Topic(s): Trust More From Warren G. Bennis "The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That’s nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born." "Excellence is a better teacher than mediocrity. The lessons of the ordinary are everywhere. Truly profound and original insights are to be found only in studying the exemplary." "Good leaders make people feel that they’re at the very heart of things, not at the periphery." More In Trust "To state the facts frankly is not to despair the future nor indict the past. The prudent heir takes careful inventory of his legacies and gives a faithful accounting to those whom he owes an obligation of trust."― John F. Kennedy "Life is a gift, given in trust – like a child."― Anne Morrow Lindbergh "Trust me, you have to fight. When people are wrong, you’ve got to let them know it."― Orlando Cepeda
