- Jesse Jackson
About this Quote
This quote by Jesse Jackson highlights the importance of ethical leadership. It recommends that leaders ought to not just accept the status quo, but ought to strive to make a positive distinction in the world. Leaders ought to want to challenge the existing norms and take a stand for what is right. They must want to take risks and make difficult decisions in order to create a much better future. Management is not practically following the crowd, however about taking a stand and making a distinction. Leaders ought to be willing to defend what is right and take a moral stance on problems that matter. They need to want to challenge the status quo and develop a much better future for all.
