Thought for the Day

"Leadership involves more than managing the present. There must be a vision of the future that will lead to the shaping of trends and directions.

"It involves the capacity to lead by persuasion rather than by mandate. It recognizes the need to delegate responsibility and give to others freedom to manage in their respective fields of assignment.

"The leader must have appreciation and respect for all people while at the same time giving special nurture and concern to the institution and its people for whom he has an immediate and particular responsibility."
