The Art of Leadership

1. The leader has faith in people. He believes in, trusts, and thus draws out the best in them.

2. The leader sees through the eyes of his followers.

3. The leader does not say, "Get going!" Instead he says, "Let's go!" and leads the way.

4. The leader uses his heart as well as his head. After he has considered the facts with his head, he lets his heart take a look too.

5. The leader has a sense of humor. He has the humble spirit and can laugh at himself.

6. The leader is a person of action as well as a person of thought.
