“Being a Leader is a Privilege. Make the most of it.”
“Building Winning Cultures is about creating an environment where there is trust and people really care, and at its core, this only happens with solid Leadership.”
When speaking to employee groups:
“Show me the landmines—don’t let me step on them.
We know there are some problems that need to be addressed
and we know you know where they are.
We don’t care who caused them or why—we just want to fix them.”
“Urgency is everything, because minutes matter.”
“Organizations cannot become high performing without first having a strong healthy culture at their core, where people feel valued, included and
part of a team…where they feel they are part of something BIGGER.”
“We aren’t running this company like the Department of Motor Vehicles.
We are on the nose cone of a rocket ship—it might be bumpy and
our hair might get blown around, but it’s gonna be a helluva ride!”
“Is your heart racing? That’s because we are doing things that are spectacular!
We are in rarified air, Baby!”
“Humans are wonderfully fallible. The best humans are the ones who
recognize that and constantly look for flaws and fix them.”
“My friends, in life, you are either the hunter or the hunted.
We will NOT be the latter.”
“We are gonna beat the competition because we want it more
than they do. We are going to outwork them, outrun them and,
with that, give customers a better experience.”
“Don’t let perfect become the enemy of good.
Let’s create a good, practical plan and get moving on it.”
“Paranoia is a good thing. It’s perhaps the best of things.
It’s about having the humility to worry about and monitor
our decisions, just to be sure we didn’t make a mistake.”
