Too many companies waste time trying to eliminate their employees' weaknesses when, in fact, they should concentrate on developing their strengths.

As a general rule, people tend to do best what they enjoy doing most.

No idea will work if people don't trust your intentions toward them.

The difference between a pebble and a mountain lies in whom you ask to move it.

The time you spend with your best (employees) is, quite simply, your most productive time.

We live with them every day, and they come so easily to us that they cease to be precious.

A note of caution: We can never achieve goals that envy sets for us. Looking at your friends and wishing you had what they had is a waste of precious energy. Because we are all unique, what makes another happy may do the opposite for you. That's why advice is nice but often disappointing when heeded.
