John Chambers

CEO of JC2 Ventures and the former chairman and CEO of Cisco Systems
"When a leader doesn't do his or her job, it isn't just a problem with the person. They take their whole organization down."

Steve Jobs

Co-Founder, Apple
"It’s a complicated and noisy world, and we’re not going to get a chance to get people to remember much about us. No company is. So we have to be really clear about what we want them to know about us.”

Tim Cook

CEO, Apple
"You can focus on things that are barriers or you can focus on scaling the wall or redefining the problem."

Ginni Rometty

CEO, IBM
"One of the most important things for any leader is to never let anyone else define who you are. And you define who you are. I never think of myself as being a woman CEO of this company. I think of myself as a steward of a great institution."

Sheryl Sandburg

COO, Facebook
"Leadership is not bullying and leadership is not aggression. Leadership is the expectation that you can use your voice for good. That you can make the world a better place."
