No man is good enough to govern another man without that other’s consent.

Abraham Lincoln

All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.

John Kenneth Galbraith

The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.

Sir Winston Churchill

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

John Quincy Adams

A great leader’s courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position.

John Maxwell

Not the cry, but the flight of a wild duck, leads the flock to fly and follow.

Chinese Proverb

I start with the premise that the function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.

Ralph Nader

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

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

As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.

Bill Gates

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.
