“Leadership doesn’t come free, there is a price you pay to be a leader. Leaders must be willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of the people. They have to set aside their self-interest and never abuse their authority for personal gain. They have to put in the time, personal resources, and talent to lead people in the right direction and down the best path toward mission accomplishment. It doesn’t stop there, they need to work hard, start early, quit late, listen, be humble, calm fears, and make others better then themselves to carry on the leadership. Are you willing to pay the price of true leadership?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs#leaders #leadership #leadership #work #people #talent #leadershipdevelopment #paytheprice #price #cost #Free #leadbyexample #sacrifice #give #giveback #time #personal #resources #talent #direction #pathforward #missionfocused #workhard #startearly #listen #humbleleadership #calm #makebetterhappen #leadershipbyexample
