Great Leaders

Harry Beckwith has been credited with saying, “People don’t lead, purposes do.” If that’s true, a great leader steadfastly focuses on the cause and invites others to participate – to play a contributing part. Great leaders provide opportunities for others to be involved with pursuing something that matters. They lead the charge.
