The crux of leadership...

A coworker of mine just gave me this quote. It was relevant to me in many layers. Thought I would post it.

"The crux of leadership is the acceptance of responsibility—the
idea or fantasy that one can make a difference in the course of
events. This sense of personal involvement in life is not simply a
passive experience. It is an impelling urge to make a difference
and use oneself in effecting outcomes. The insecurity of leaders
is often related to the possibility that their actions in the end may
appear trivial."

Always thought Durham would be the next hotspot for job growth. Very creative idea in hosting a FREE space contest for start-ups. Good for Durham and good for our business community.
