Wikipedia has an article about:
  • Change before you have to.
  • An organization’s ability to learn, and translate that learning into action rapidly, is the ultimate competitive advantage.
  • Giving people self-confidence is by far the most important thing that I can do. Because then they will act.
  • I’ve learned that mistakes can often be as good a teacher as success.
  • If you pick the right people and give them the opportunity to spread their wings and put compensation as a carrier behind it you almost don’t have to manage them.
  • Willingness to change is a strength, even if it means plunging part of the company into total confusion for a while.
  • An overburdened, overstretched executive is the best executive, because he or she doesn’t have the time to meddle, to deal in trivia, to bother people.
  • I was afraid of the internet… because I couldn’t type.
  • Strong managers who make tough decisions to cut jobs provide the only true job security in today’s world. Weak managers are the problem. Weak managers destroy jobs.
