Leadership is always about people.

The true leader is always led.

Leaders, true leaders, take responsibility for the success of the team and understand that they must also take responsibility for the failure.

Look, I take responsibility always for everything because it's ultimately my job, too. I have to get everybody in line.

On any team, in any organization, all responsibility for success and failure rests with the leader. The leader must own everything in his or her world. There is no one else to blame. The leader must acknowledge mistakes and admit failures, take ownership of them, and develop a plan to win.

The responsibility of leaders is to teach their people the rules, train them to gain competency and build their confidence.

If an individual or organization hopes to assume the responsibility of leadership—a responsibility that is given, not taken—then they must think, act, and speak in a way that inspires people to follow.

I've learned over the years that leadership is everything.

Leaders must always operate with the understanding that they are part of something greater than themselves and their own personal interests.

Leadership, pure and simple, is the assumption of responsibility for the pursuit of excellence in group life.

Leadership, true leadership, is not the bastion of those who sit at the top. It is the responsibility of anyone who belongs to the group.

Leadership consists of nothing but taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong and giving your subordinates credit for everything that goes well.

In any organization, the man at the top must bear the responsibility. That responsibility, therefore, belongs here, in this office. I accept it. And I pledge to you tonight, from this office, that I will do everything in my power to ensure that the guilty are brought to justice and that such abuses are purged from our political processes in the years to come, long after I have left this office.
