Leadership is a process whereby an individual influences a group 

of individuals to achieve a common goal

Richard B. Russell

“Leadership is influence. Nothing more, nothing less. Leadership is action, not position. A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way. 99% of all leadership occurs not from the top but from the middle of an organization.”

- John Maxwell

Richard B. Russell

“Managing winds up being the allocation of resources against tasks. Leadership focuses on people. My definition of a leader is someone who helps people succeed.”

“The ‘business’ of leaders at all levels is to help those in their charge develop beyond their dreams – which in turn, almost automatically leads to ‘all that other stuff,’ such as happy customers, happy stockholders, and happy communities.”

“The road to success is paved with mistakes well handled.”

-Stanley Marcus

Richard B. Russell

“The growth mindset is a buffer against defeatism. It reframes failure as a natural part of the change process. And that’s critical, because people will persevere only if they perceive falling down as learning rather than failing.”
