Ihmiset haluavat johtajan, joka on aina aito.
Earn the right to be heard by listening to others. Seek to understand a situation before making judgments about it.

The measure of a leader is not the number of people who serve him but the number of people he serves.

The leader makes the position.

John C Maxwellin sitaatteja epäonnistumisesta

The more you fail, the more you learn.
The more you learn, the better you get.
Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker.
To move forward today, you must learn to say good-bye to yesterday's hurts, tragedies and baggage. You can't build a monument to past problems and fail forward.
