A cowardly leader is the most dangerous of men.

Stephen King

The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.

Jim Rohn

Leadership is unlocking people’s potential to become better.

Bill Bradley

The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. That’s nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.

Warren Bennis

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.

Margaret Mead

Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.

General George Patton

You don’t lead by pointing and telling people some place to go. You lead by going to that place and making a case.

Ken Kesey

My own definition of leadership is this: The capacity and the will to rally men and women to a common purpose and the character which inspires confidence.

General Montgomery

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

John Quincy Adams

The very essence of leadership is that you have to have a vision. It’s got to be a vision you articulate clearly and forcefully on every occasion. You can’t blow an uncertain trumpet.

Reverend Theodore Hesburgh

Mentoring Program

Mentoring in Business

A relationship between two executives, in which the “mentor”, advises the “mentee”, in certain significant assignments that the mentee needs to perform. The mentor is usually a broader, longer, not necessarily but often older, very successful business executive, that through his/her vast knowledge and experience, while pursuing his/her excellent track record, can recall that precious know-how and confide it with the mentee, if and when the case might be, in the interests of the mentee and upon the rise of issues that need resolving.

Good chemistry between the two parties is a clear “must”, as well as full trust and confidentiality.

Mentoring is not coaching, that’s why it is a relationship and not a service, i.e. training, that is provided.
Although the objective of mentoring is to assist the mentee to perform his/her assigned role, by having a more knowledgeable & experienced executive to offer advice towards his/her success, the mentor also benefits from this relationship, as he/she gets to know the mentee’s business insights and adding this to his/her already long list of deep business knowledge and experience.

Mentoring can result to a good personal friendship, in addition to business exposure and networking.
