It's better to do it than to talk about how perfect it could be.

Corporate culture matters. How management chooses to treat its people impacts everything - for better or for worse.

Time and energy. Those are the most valuable sacrifices leaders can make.

Look down from as high as possible. Look ahead as far as you can see. Then decide what to do.

The ones who show up to take, they show up and say, "Hi. My name is Steve. I'm an expert in this and I've studied this and I've worked with these clients." On every single power point presentation, it has their email, their Twitter handle and their Facebook account, so you can follow them. At the end, they tell you, "Please follow me." When you ask them a question, they say, "Well, I could tell you the answer, but you should really just read my book."

Trust emerges when we have a sense that another person or organization is driven by things other than their own self-gain.

A boss wants to pay for results, an employee wants recognition for effort. If a boss recognizes effort, they will get even better results.
