Quote by Harold S. Geneen

Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.

Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude

Summary

This quote emphasizes that true leadership is not just about what a person says, but how they behave and the example they set through their actions and attitude. Merely speaking about leadership is not enough; it must be demonstrated consistently through one's behavior. Effective leaders understand that their words need to be backed up by their actions, and that their attitude can greatly influence those they lead. It highlights the importance of leading by example and embodying the ideals and values a leader wishes to instill in others.

He preached, made speeches, read for us, explained to us, etc.(remarks attributed to Abraham Lincoln's cousin, Dennis Hanks)
