What's increasingly clear is that when you are open to a discussion of leadership, and you're relating it to your company, it is much easier to get people to become open.

I was attracted to law school because I believed it would help me prepare for a career in the real world.

I had very little exposure to business growing up. I also was very focused on the Civil Rights Movement. And I saw law as a vehicle to really bring about substantial change.

If readers, young and old, would take even a moment to reflect on our rapidly shifting culture and ideology, I would be happy. Many leaders of the older generation dismiss emerging culture. Those leaders are at risk of becoming a feeble voice-piece without followers. Most of the younger generation is going deaf to the truth.

The scrupulous and the just, the noble, humane, and devoted natures; the unselfish and the intelligent may begin a movement - but it passes away from them. They are not the leaders of a revolution. They are its victims.

A leader has to be a role model both in both political and personal life, so from the beginning, I was cautious about my image and I wanted to be incorruptible like my father.

The best leaders are readers of people. They have the intuitive ability to understand others by discerning how they feel and recognizing what they sense.
