David Koresh, Charlie Manson, Jim Jones and their like would disagree with that statement. Guess that would be a good indicator of "should you be there?"

If we were all leaders, who would there be to follow ?

Oh, I like that.

I might steal it for my "quote of the week" (or did I send that one already? It's hard to remember sometimes...)

I had to come by because I heard that you posted twice here in one day.

... guess you're makin' sure we know you're alive, eh. :)

I would agree with that statement. You need to learn to follow before you can be a leader.
All Christians follow Christ and he asked us to lead others to him. So, in that sense, we are are leaders too! Jesus our leader has produced more leaders!
That Ralph Nader is a smart cookie!

I prefer:

Leadership can be thought of as a capacity to define oneself to others in a way that clarifies and expands a vision of the future.

(Edwin H. Friedman)

I like that one too! Where there is no vision, the people perish.

Dougie G said...

Yum! Cookies. Two cakes are better than one!

hmmm... where's Bob?

Maybe he's sick. Maybe he ate the two cakes by himself.

Maybe he absconded with them and is now hiding out from the cake police.
