The best leaders don’t always talk, but they always listen.

The best leaders don’t know everything , but they try to know everyone.

The best leaders don’t guess, but they do plan.

The best leaders don’t react to every little thing, but they focus on the important things.

The best leaders don’t sit still, but they constantly challenge the status quo.

The best leaders don’t hide, but they are visible and accessible.

The best leaders don’t carry a burden, but they do carry culture.

The best leaders don’t treat their mistakes as embarrassing errors, but as enriching lessons.

The best leaders don’t know all the answers, but they ask lots of questions.

The best leaders don’t humiliate, but they encourage.

The best leaders don’t make a noise, but they do make a difference.

The best leaders don’t shout.
