Leaders who do not make time to set personal defaults driven by internal values will always be in a crisis.

Authentic leaders do not live in external circumstances; they moor their internal spirit through daily, intentional character building.

The basics of authentic leadership can be acquired by anyone who puts their mind to learning them.

If we cling to human-made rules and policies, we are guaranteed to be wrong at some point.

We all want to change something about ourselves or the world around us; unless we change personal beliefs first, change is impossible.

The best leaders don’t have a specific personality; they are authentic to the personality they own and seek to improve it daily.

Authentic leaders realize it is paramount to create a political environment in which everyone is served at the level they find themselves.

We must individually realize the deleterious effect of looking to other’s opinions to establish our worth.

Sometimes being disliked is an indication you stood up for the right in the face of opposition.
