What’s your leadership anthem?

“You just gotta ignite the light

And let it shine

Just own the night

Like the fourth of July

’Cause baby you’re a firework

Come and show ’em what you’re worth

Make ’em go “oh, oh, oh!”

As you shoot across the sky-y-y”

-- Katy Perry, Firework

“If you play a tune and a person don’t tap their

feet, don’t play the tune.”

-- Count Basie
