“Leaders are made by the day–to–day practice and fine tuning of leadership talents, because leading is an art as well, is a science and best developed by application. Leaders are made by the steady acquisition of professional knowledge and by the development of 24–karat character during the course of a career. The professional knowledge of leaders is essential to sound teaching and to improve the proficiency as well as readiness of units. Personal and professional excellence...you can’t do one without the other...they are all wrapped up in the word ’ character’.”
