From the the two days at The Global Brand Forum

  • Queen Victoria who allowed Benjamin Disraeli, the only commoner to shake her hand. This is what she had to say of Disraeli and his contemporary, Gladstone. ?When I am talking with Gladstone, I feel he is addressing the public media and when I am with Disraeli, I feel as though I am the smartest woman in England.? Whose company would people prefer to be in? Dr. Bennis shared this snippet on how leaders should bring out the best in people.
  • ?Be yourself and use every opportunity that comes to you. Be proud of whatever you are and whoever you are.? Dr. Kiran Bedi
  • ?Nobody can prevent you from choosing to be exceptional.? Dr. Kiran Bedi on what she learnt from her parents.
  • ?We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is a habit.? Socrates. Dr. Kiran Bedi on a principle she lives by.
