Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise.

Woodrow Wilson
About This Quote

Most of the time, leadership means agreeing to disagree. It means compromising with ideas that are different than your own. Yet, Mark Hertling, the head coach of the New York Giants, rejected this idea. He believes that leadership doesn’t always mean compromising. Instead, it involves standing up for things you believe in no matter what happens.
