A quote Rohan sent me

Carly Fiorina, HP chairperson and CEO:

“…I think leadership takes what I call a strong internal compass. And
I use the term compass because what does a compass do? When the winds
are howling, and the storms are raging, and the sky is cloudy so you
have nothing to navigate by, a compass tells you where true North is.
And I think when a person is in a difficult situation, a lonely
situation…you have to rely on that compass. Who am I? What do I
believe? Do I believe we’re doing the right things for the right
reasons in the right way? And sometimes that’s all you have” (In
conversation with Louise Kehoe, July 21, 2003). (Shamir and Eilam
2005: 400)
