By leadership, I mean taking complete responsibility for an organization's well-being and growth, and changing it for the better. Real leadership is not about prestige, power or status. It is about responsibility.

Robert L. Joss

We think leadership is about rank and power, but better to think of leadership as the responsibility for other human beings. That leadership and rank may not go together. So it manifests in this remarkable way.

Simon Sinek

Bipartisanship isn't an option anymore; it is a requirement. The American people have divided responsibility for leadership right down the middle.

Tom Daschle

Leadership starts with understanding responsibility, not ability. Leadership is a Stewardship, not a show.

Rick Warren

Leadership - leadership is about taking responsibility, not making excuses.

Mitt Romney

I think America has a responsibility to maintain its leadership in technology and its moral leadership in the world, to explore, to seek knowledge.

Gene Cernan

Leadership is not a license to do less. Leadership is a responsibility to do more

Simon Sinek

The leader builds dispersed and diverse leadership - distributing leadership to the outermost edges of the circle to unleash the power of shared responsibility.

Frances Hesselbein

The price of LEADERSHIP is RESPONSIBILITY....and part of that responsibility is to STAY POSITIVE whether you feel like it or not.

Lou Holtz

It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute.

William Pollard

Character in many ways is everything in leadership. It is made up of many things, but I would say character is really integrity. When you delegate something to a subordinate, for example, it is absolutely your responsibility, and he must understand this. You as a leader must take complete responsibility for what the subordinate does. I once said, as a sort of wisecrack, that leadership consists of nothing but taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong and giving your subordinates credit for everything that goes well.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Management is clearly different from leadership. Leadership is primarily a high-powered, right-brain activity. It's more of an art it's based on a philosophy. You have to ask the ultimate questions of life when you're dealing with personal leadership issues.

Stephen Covey

Those with visible responsibility for leadership are nearly always too visible to take responsibility for change.

Harlan Cleveland

Voting is a right and a responsibility. Teaching young voters the value of this right and responsibility will show them the power they possess to shape their future.

Alex Padilla

You can't talk about leadership without talking about responsibility and accountability...you can't separate the two. A leader must delegate responsibility and provide the freedom to make decisions, and then be held accountable for the results.

Buck Rodgers

A lot of things about my way of leadership is to be vocal, but I try to lead by example - how I approach work and study the game. Do the things the right way. It's a great responsibility I love to have.
