Leadership is a trait; it's not a skill.
[Grover Cleveland] had a sort of patent way of shaking hands which he probably invented for self-protection. He grabbed the visitor's hand, gave it a slight squeeze, and dropped it like a hot potato. He never under any circumstances whatsoever permitted a visitor to grip his large, fat hand.
I think leadership is not something you learn; it's something you discover.
Fidel Castro just talked a long time, and he talked and he talked and he talked and he talked... and he talked during the meeting. I think it was about four hours. But I guess that's part of the Castro spirit.
It is true that integrity alone won't make you a leader, but without integrity you will never be one.
I've been a mogul and executive since the beginning of my career. People are just born with that skill.
I think leadership is both a trained thing and a natural gift.
I think any manager who tells you, 'I am very good at keeping my equilibrium. I'm always calm and reasoned, and results don't affect me particularly. I can take the good with the bad, and I can put the wins and the losses in perspective,' you will find a special person. I've never met one.
You can't wake up one morning and say, 'Right, now I'm going to be a leader.' I think it is something that's in you, that you're born with, and which develops. Some people have that character, that personality and it comes naturally. You can't force it. It has to be authentic and natural. Innate.
I think leadership is just something that comes really natural to me.
I respect the fact that Donald Trump always listens. It's how he was in business. It's how he is as president.
Leadership is something I was born with.
Donald Trump is proud of the fact that he's never written an e-mail.
The leadership spirit comes with a spirit of leadership.
A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons for his action.
It would surprise you how many government and business leaders with dyslexia. Some people view it as a weakness, and maybe it is. What dyslexia forces you to do, you don't go A, B, C, D, E... to Z. I can go A, B... Z with speed.
