When I think of leadership Nelson Mandela tops my list. His grace, his courage, his forgiveness, his kindness.
No matter how busy he was as president of South Africa, he always had time to shake the hand of a cleaner, offer a word of encouragement to a server and share a laugh with a child.

As I think about it though I believe the real secret of his magic was that he was an absolute master of staying focused on his mission. Through times of ease and nights of darkness, he relentlessly stayed true to his ideal of a free and democratic South Africa. A place where all could flourish, regardless of their skin color or ethnic origin.
