Frank Glaviano Quote

"As leaders we should never be too impressed with ourselves.  Hopefully we do take pride in our work and can maintain our self-esteem, but if taken too far we risk two failures.  The first is, we stop learning.  When we get too high on ourselves we lose track of just how much more there is to learn.  The second failing is to forget about the people we lead.  Leadership is a privilege, and the concept of a 'servant leader' is the most noble form of leadership.  If our pride gets ahead of us and our noses in the air, we can forget about the people who do real work, who we are privileged to lead, and actually think we ourselves are important.  It's all about the people." - Frank Glaviano, Sr.
