The Fifth Discipline

by Peter M. Senge

Leadership

Courage is simply doing whatever is needed in pursuit of the vision.

Leadership

Leadership

In the presence of greatness, pettiness disappears. In the absence of a great dream, pettiness prevails.

Leadership

The most effective people are those who can hold their vision while remaining committed to seeing current reality clearly.
