John Wooden's Leadership Quotes

1)"Good coaching is based purely in leadership... a positive example... and instilling respect in your players."
2)"Knowledge is not enough to get desired results. You must have the more elusive ability to teach and to motivate. This defines a leader; if you can't teach and you can't motivate, you can't lead."
3)"You must have respect, which is a part of love, for those under your supervision. Then they will do what you ask and more."
4)"Motivating through fear may work in the short term to get people to do something, but over the long run I believe personal pride is a much greater motivator. It produces far better results that last for a much longer time."
5)"Young people need models, not critics."
6)"Happiness begins where selfishness ends."
7)"Ability will get you to the top, character will keep you there."
