Created for Greatness Quotes

“Humility is the second virtue specific to leaders. Whereas magnanimity affirms our personal dignity and greatness, humility affirms the dignity and greatness of others. Leadership means pulling rather than pushing, teaching rather than ordering about, inspiring rather than berating. Thus, leadership is less about displays of power than the empowerment of others. To practice humility is to bring out the greatness in others, to give them the capacity to realize their human potential. In this sense, leaders are always teachers and fathers/mothers. Humility is the habit of serving others. A leader’s “followers” are the people he serves.”
― Alexandre Havard, Created for Greatness: The Power of Magnanimity
