I find the leadership is really about storytelling. First, having the skills to survey the landscape, recognize the patterns, and choose an appropriate path and second, and perhaps even more important, the ability to paint that picture for those that you may lead.

Another phrase I have never really understood was "gung-ho attitude," but that didn't keep me from loving this line from one of my son's Star Wars, The Clone Wars books.
