“We teach that the best leaders are those who have ambition for the organization, but not for themselves. If an individual’s ambition is for himself or herself, chances are people will not want to follow them.”¹

- Robert A. McDonald, Current CEO and Former COO of P&G, in October 2008.

“Procter & Gamble epitomizes what leadership can create. When I think of this corporation, I picture the torch of leadership being passed from person to person, generation to generation, century to century.” ²

- Dennis F. Haley, Co-author of ‘The Leader’s Compass: A Personal Leadership Philosophy is Your Key to Success’, in May 2004.
