Thought-provoking issues
“The true leader serves. Serves
people. Serves their best interests,
and in so doing will not always be
popular, may not impress. But
because true leaders are motivated
by loving concern rather than a desire
for personal glory, they are willing to
pay the price.” (Eugene B. Habecker)
