Jack, An added thought arose after reading your return post. Having studied
leadership for years and lived it in the trenches (with some success and some
faiure) I have come to feel the follow quote rather embodies all that I have
ever learned about leadership:
"Above all else, a leader must be a merchant of hope."
If memory serves, I think it's a quote from Napoleon.
