In a good meeting there is a momentum that comes from the spontaneous exchange of fresh ideas and produces extraordinary results. That momentum depends on the freedom permitted the participants.

I don't believe in just ordering people to do things. You have to sort of grab an oar and row with them. My philosophy is to stay as close as possible to what's happening. If I can't solve something, how the hell can I expect my managers to.

A true leader has to have a genuine open-door policy so that his people are not afraid to approach him for any reason.

Management must manage!

Business is many things, the least of which is the balance sheet. It is a fluid, ever changing, living thing, sometimes building to great peaks, sometimes falling to crumbled lumps.

In the business world, everyone is always working at legitimate cross purposes, governed by self interest.

Better a good decision quickly than the best decision too late.
