Spiritual Leadership Quotes“Youth are the leaders of tomorrow. Those who practice the Spiritual Exercises of Eck will know how to lead by the example of love instead of the methods of force and lies, which are the standards of leaders under the spell of the negative force.” “Spiritual leadership is the opposite of what most people think. Spiritual leadership is servant leadership. Jesus Christ Himself taught us, "just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:28). Jesus was most definitely a leader. He was the leader of the twelve disciples and a much greater group of followers beyond them (Luke 10:1-17). Jesus did not lead by giving out orders or by supervising. Jesus led by being a servant and serving alongside of His followers.” 
“The spiritual leader's task is to move people from where they are to where God wants them to be.” “There is no such thing as a self made spiritual leader. He is able to influence others spiritually only because the Spirit is able to work in and through him to a greater degree than in those he leads.” “Spiritual-based (leadership): From this view, the nature of business itself is transformed - so that the primary purpose of business and leadership is spiritual fulfillment and selfless service to society , where both are motivated from the Source of creation. Wealth creation is no longer the goal ; it becomes a means for enabling and sustaining this purpose. Business leaders promote the spiritual fulfillment of everyone touched by the business: Employees, customers, suppliers, shareholders, and society. Likewise, business leaders develop selflessness in their service to society, seeing the Source in all whom they serve.” “If two or three persons should come with a high spiritual aim and with great powers, the world would fall into their hands like a ripe peach.” “Leadership is based on a spiritual quality; the power to inspire, the power to inspire others to follow.” “Everyone can be great because anyone can serve.” An enlightened leadership quality is honesty. The best leaders don't need to stretch the truth. Spiritual leadership recognizes that being honest is the best way to gain respect. There's no room for dishonest behavior in enlightened leadership.” “I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.” “Leadership is doing what is right when no one is watching.” “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”
