Lead from the back - and let others believe they are in front.

It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.

You don't lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.

Focus on your customers and lead your people as though their lives depend on your success.

Much was to be done by prudence, much by conciliation, much by firmness. Few, who are not philosophical spectators, can realize the difficult and delicate part, which a man in my situation had to act.

Tis the times' plague, when madmen lead the blind.
