- Candor is an invisible staff member who should be called upon at every meeting.
- Your most dangerous competitor may be the daily bombardment of distractions.
- Any leader who rushes to blame staff is engaging in self-criticism.
- Basics are rarely simple and essentials are too often regarded as optional.
- People can fight without fighting and flee without leaving.
- It takes a lot of thought to learn how to think.
- Your team is your most important product.
- The greatest power and the greatest ideas are often found in separate offices.
- Knowing it is not the same as doing it.
- Consider how much turn-over there would be if job titles had to be periodically earned.
