Leadership And Governor's Role in Leadership

Former Governor Whitman of NJ: Leadership is getting people to do what you want them to do because they want to do it.

More from Whitman: Every policy you do as a governor will hurt somebody. It is not like running a business where your only obligation is to do what is best for your business or for your shareholders. A Governor must recognize that she has to do what is best for the largest number of people not just for friends, special interest or even for deserving citizens. A Governor has to make decisions as a state leader and those decisions, all of them, will hurt somebody or something. that is the role of public policy leader of a Governor.
