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.

My concern is that we live in an economy in which stabbing someone and waiting for them to complain before we remove the knife has become the normal way of doing business. When did we lose sight of the fact that it's not nice to stab people in the first place?

Leadership is a choice. It's not a rank, it's a choice. I know many people who are at the top of their organization who have authority. We have to do what they say because they have authority over us. But they're not leaders. We wouldn't follow them. They may be at the top of the company but they're not leaders.

We can make up for lost money, but we can't make up for lost time.

Leaders volunteer to go first into danger. Their willingness to sacrifice for us is the reason we're inspired to follow.

Before we can build the world we want to live in, we have to imagine it.

There are only two ways to influence human behavior: you can manipulate it or you can inspire it.
