Great Leaders Have Character

“Character matters; leadership descends from character.”

Rush Limbaugh, Author, Radio Talk Show Host

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Great leader have character

 

John F. Kennedy, Ronald Regan, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates have character.

 

Having character is not about being liked . . . . character is about doing the right thing because it’s the right thing to do. Character is also about being consistent in your actions . . . . not in being popular.

 

People with character lead from the front . . . . and will make the tough decisions because they have to be made and their decision making is consistent . . . . and will not change with the direction of the wind.

 

Great leaders have character and it comes to the surface through their behavior. There are also leaders who try to fake it . . . . and it only a matter of time until they are found out for who they really are.

 

A person of character stands out in every walk of life or business endeavors. They have the ability to turn a bad situation into a success and to sustain a personal relationship or a business relationship.

 

Great leaders have character and that charter matters . . . . let your character be your calling card.

Hi Lou, I especially like the last line: "let your character be your calling card". That's one of the best descriptions of a great leader I've ever heard. Thanks!

Character defines you.  If you want to be known as having a great character you  need to live that way

Character defines us all; Whether it's a GOOD character or BAD character.  We choose to do what's right or wrong.  That shows which character you truly are!  Say what you mean and mean what you say.

There is a difference between your reputation and your character!  Your reputation is built on what others say about you, your character is built from within the choices we make.
