Leadership, although largely talked about, has been described as one of the least understood concepts across all cultures and civilizations.

Famous quotes containing the word myths:
“The myths about what we’re supposed to feel as new mothers run strong and deep. . . . While joy and elation are surely present after a new baby has entered our lives, it is also within the realm of possibility that other feelings might crop up: neediness, fear, ambivalence, anger.”
—Sally Placksin (20th century)
