    Here's an excerpt from Lee Iacocca's new book, Where Have All the Leaders Gone?
    There's quite a bit more at Borders, if you follow the link above you can read his idea of the qualities a leader should have.

    While I may disagree on some of the examples, I can not argue on the 9 principle's of leadership. I especially enjoyed the last two sections of the excerpt and not second that emotion quick enough.
