The leadership instinct you are born with is the backbone. You develop the funny bone and the wishbone that go with it.
-- Elaine Agather

Notes by Prabhjot Bedi | The Eclat Coach
- I love this one. A lot people tell you leaders are born not made and on the first read this quote seems to say that. But if you read it carefully, you will see that the real leaders are the ones who have a sense of humor and the faculty of wishful thinking to go with the leadership instinct
- What can you do? Learn to appreciate fate, dreams, hope and despair. learn to laugh sometimes!

Appreciative leaders bring the gift of new eyes, penetrating and positive. They hone in on capacities. They lift every voice. But most of all they are agents of knowing life--generating alternatives, lifting up options for better living, and creating webs of inclusion that serve to enlarge our world making potential at its healthiest.
--D.L. Cooperrider

Notes by Prabhjot Bedi | The Eclat Coach
- A very nice definition of what a leader should be. Something to aspire to.
