Words may inspire but only action creates change.

The goal of life is not to have our lives mean something to ourselves. The goal of life is to have our lives mean something to others.

One of the best paradoxes of leadership is a leader's need to be both stubborn and open-minded. A leader must insist on sticking to the vision and stay on course to the destination. But he must be open-minded during the process.

Customers will never love a company until its employees love it first.

Managers watch over our numbers, our time and our results. Leaders watch over us.

Great companies don’t hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them. People are either motivated or they are not. Unless you give motivated people something to believe in, something bigger than their job to work toward, they will motivate themselves to find a new job and you’ll be stuck with whoever’s left.

I try to find, celebrate and teach leaders how to build platforms that will inspire others.
