More quotes by Peter Cosgrove
I must say that part of our national wealth is not only the nation's people but those people who lead them.
Peter Cosgrove
But it is my total conviction that all the trappings of good leadership are generic and widely applicable whether you are standing in a khaki queue with your mess tins or on an automobile production line.
Peter Cosgrove

Peter Cosgrove
We all of us have a reputation, something we are known for, and sometimes it may be different from what we would like to be known for. At the core of this is the simple but fragile heart - our integrity - which is always under challenge, under tests both trivial and profound every day of our lives.
Peter Cosgrove
