Many people talk about the decline of the work ethic. In reality, it is not the work ethic which has declined. Rather, it is leaders who have failed. Leaders have failed to instill vision, meaning, and trust in their followers. They have failed to empower them. Regardless of whether we're looking at organizations, government agencies, institutions, or small enterprises, the key and pivotal factor needed to enhance human resources is leadership.Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus, 1985
