I love what Zig Ziglar said about quotes:
"Great quotes make the light bulb go off in my mind. If you're like me, you'll jump at the chance to bypass all the churning and scoop the cream right off the top—that is what quotes are...the cream of our learning!"
Therefore, if you're a leader, or aspire to become one, it is my hope that Leadership Quotes will inspire you...to inspire others. There are over 250 great quotes and today, I'd like to share a small sampling: |
