Cleared for Takeoff, The Runway to Effective Leadership

"Managers of people, are really not people who are hired to just manage work. They are hired to inspire and lead people toward a goal. You cannot be a successful manager of people if you never figure out how to inspire and lead. A team looks for a vision from a leader. And you can't lead people to any kind of success if you don't have a clear picture of what success would look like." - T.M. Herrington
