We admire, respect and follow great leaders - and as the world evolves, we keep looking for more of them in every field of endeavor. Leadership is never given, says Peter. Leadership is always taken.

Leaders establish the ground rules and the parameters for those who follow. - As Simple as One, Two Three? Success is Driven by Basics
