“There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in it success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things – because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions …. but only lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new.”
Niccolo Machiavelli

Concepts of Leadership
“ I used to think that running an organization was equivalent to conducting a symphony orchestra. But I don’t think that’s quite it; it’s more like jazz. There is more improvisation.”
Warren Bennis
