When we tell people to do their jobs, we get workers. When we trust people to get the job done, we get leaders.

Our courage comes from the courage of others.

When or if we "quote, unquote" do not like our work, it is probably because we do not feel safe where we go to work. So when you say, what can we do?, the irony is that the best thing we can do is, well one option, is to quit.

The goal is not to be perfect by the end. The goal is to be better today.

If our leaders are to enjoy the trappings of their position in the hierarchy, then we expect them to offer us protection. The problem is, for many of the overpaid leaders, we know that they took the money and perks and didn’t offer protection to their people. In some cases, they even sacrificed their people to protect or boost their own interests. This is what so viscerally offends us. We only accuse them of greed and excess when we feel they have violated the very definition of what it means to be a leader.

Good marketing offers us a view of the world. Bad marketing offers us a product to buy.

Good marketing speaks to human beings - the way human beings understand and take in information.
