Leadership is not taken, it is given. People give leadership to those that they trust. They allow people that they trust to have influence over their lives.

Henry Cloud

Why wouldn't female Marines come forward? Because they don't trust us. They don't trust the command. They don't trust the leadership.

James F. Amos

Over time, I have come to this simple definition of leadership: Leadership is getting results in a way that inspires trust.

Stephen Covey

I think leadership of any kind requires trust and transparency and voters should demand no less from their political leadership in government.

Carly Fiorina

Character makes trust possible, and trust is the foundation of leadership.

John C. Maxwell

True leadership is moral authority, not formal authority. Leadership is a choice, not a position. The choice is to follow universal timeless principles, which will build trust and respect from the entire organization. Those with formal authority alone will lose this trust and respect.

Stephen Covey

Leadership is a function of knowing yourself, having a vision that is well communicated, building trust among colleagues, and taking effective action to realize your own leadership potential.

Warren G. Bennis

In leadership, there are no words more important than trust. In any organization, trust must be developed among every member of the team if success is going to be achieved

Mike Krzyzewski

Leadership is the ability to get extraordinary achievement from ordinary people.

Brian Tracy

Teams use trust as currency. If it is in short supply, then the team is poor. If trust abounds, the members of the team have purchase power with each other to access each others’ gifts, talents, energy, creativity, and love. The development of trust then becomes a significant leadership strategy. Trust creates the load limits on the relationship bridges among team members

Reggie McNeal

People had lost trust in governance. Getting back that trust, instilling a sense of hope and belief that good governance and development would be back on track, is my biggest achievement.

Yogi Adityanath

Quality effective leaders have the confidence to trust others to try, succeed, and sometimes to fail. We very often confuse personality with leadership. In other words, leadership is not about being a nice person or not a nice person.

Simon Sinek

Leadership can't be claimed like luggage at the airport. Leadership can't be inherited, even though you may inherit a leadership position. And leadership can't be given as a gift - even if you've been blessed with an abundance of leadership skills to share with someone else. Leadership must be earned by mastering a defined set of skills and by working with others to achieve common goals.
