Lewis H. Lapham on Leadership

Posted on Monday, March 8th, 2010 at 9:42 am by Lars Toomre

Leadership consists not in degrees of technique but in traits of character; it requires moral rather than athletic or intellectual effort, and it imposes on both the leader and follower alike the burdens of self-restraint.

— Lewis H. Lapham
