If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then you are an excellent leader.”
– Dolly Parton
The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.”
– Ronald Reagan
The greatest teacher and mentor is that person who “does it” not for personal gain but for the joy of helping others feel successful and worthy.
