Rudy Guiliani On Leadership

Rudy Giuliani on Leadership:

DEFY EXPECTATION:
  • You have to base your decisions on the allegiances that are most important to you.
  • Ultimately, you have to be able to make the decision you think is the right one.
  • The best way for a leader to set an independent tone is to establish that every decision, including those made by people who act on the leader's behalf, must be made for the benefit of the enterprise.
  • True leadership requires choosing, in every instance, the position that allows you to sleep at night.
DON'T LET CRITICS SET YOUR AGENDA:
  • A leader must not let critics set the agenda.
  • A leader has to have the confidence to think that his decisions will be proven correct.
  • While trying to retain humility, you must accept that the reason you're making these decisions and other people are not is because, for now, you are in charge and they aren't.
  • You do no one any good if you cannot carry the weight of your convictions.
