Clement Fernandes's quotes
"Control is not leadership; management is not leadership; leadership is leadership. If you seek to lead, invest at least 50% of your time in leading yourself—your own purpose, ethics, principles, motivation, conduct. Invest at least 20% leading those with authority over you and 15% leading your peers."
"Asked what his secret was for lasting so long and being so successful as the president of Yale University, Dr. James R. Angell explained: "Grow antennae, not horns."
"A most important key to successful leadership is your ability to direct and challenge the very best that is in those whom you lead."
"Leadership should be born out of the understanding of the needs of those who would be affected by it."
"The leadership instinct you are born with is the backbone. You develop the funny bone and the wishbone that go with it."
"Become the kind of leader that people would follow voluntarily;even if you had no title or position."
"It's not always easy to do the right thing. But, doing the right thing makes you strong, it builds character, it forces you to make decisions based upon your beliefs and not what other people think. In life, and in business, you have to stand for what you believe in and sometimes you have to stand alone. But, what makes you a leader is having the courage of your convictions."
"A leader is a dealer in hope."
