To leaders, one trusted friend is better than ten well known betrayers

About This Quote

It’s good to have a good friend, but it’s better to be a trusted friend. This quote gives an important reminder about leadership. When you have a good friend, you have someone to trust and rely on. But when you are a trusted leader, you have so much more. Trust can be found in many places, but there are only a few people that you can truly trust.

You can choose to trust your team or your boss or even your friends, but there is only one person that you can trust above all others. As Nelson Mandela said, “A trusted friend is better than ten well known betrayers."
