About This Quote

In leadership, life and all things it’s far wiser to judge people by their deeds than their speech – their track record rather than their talk — Rasheed Ogunlaru. In leadership, the words that leaders say are important, but actions are even more important. The way a leader behaves affects the life of those under his or her rule. The words that a leader speaks can affect the world around him or her, but so too does the actions of a leader.

Words can influence a person to believe a certain way or do a specific thing. But actions result in changes, for better or for worse. Actions also have consequences and those consequences can be seen for years after an action has been taken.
