We want everybody to have the best facilities in which to work, but we do not believe in posh and impressive private offices. - Akio Morita

..I believe it is a big mistake to think that money is the only way to compensate a person for his work. People need money, but they also want to be happy in their work and proud of it.

...the remarkable thing about management is that a manager can go on for years making mistakes that nobody is aware of, which means that management can be a kind of a con job.

We tell our young managers: 'Don't be afraid to make a mistake. But make sure you don't make the same mistake twice'.
