It is better to take over and build upon an existing business than to start a new one. - Harold Geneen

You cannot run a business, or anything else, on a theory.

Every company has two organizational structures: the formal one is written on the charts; the other is the everyday living relationship of the men and women in the organization.

The best way to inspire people to superior performance is to convince them by everything you do and by your everyday attitude that you are wholeheartedly supporting them.
