Success in any field, but especially in business is about working with people, not against them.

Each [co-worker] works his or her way, not your way. And each is entitled to work in his or her way. What matters is whether they perform and what their values are. As far as how they perform — each is likely to do it differently. The first secret to effectiveness is to understand the people you work with and depend on so that you can make use of their strengths, their ways of working, and their values. Working relationships are as much based on the people as they are on the work.

In business, cooperation is essential to success.

It's not how smart the people in the organization are; it's how well they work together that is the true indicator of future success or the ability to manage through struggle.

The most important ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with other people.

The secret to long-term success is to work as a team,” Benincasa said. “The greatest results happen when people connect.”

So, you've got to have patience, you've go to work, and you've got to remember, as I said a while ago, that it's not the people that you work for that are going to guarantee your success, it's the people that work for you. That's where you've got to put your attention, and take care of them first.

Success depends on employees. For me knowing and connecting with my employees is very important.

Startups operate on the principle that you need to work with other people to get stuff done, but you also need to stay small enough so that you actually can.

I have learned how to work with different people and to remain trustworthy to the people that I was serving.

If certain conditions are met and the people inside an organization feel safe among each other, they will work together to achieve things none of them could have ever achieved alone.

If there's any success that I've had, it is a direct reflection of the people I work with. We have a very smart team and an extremely hardworking team, both here in Washington and back in Illinois.

People who consistently succeed are those who can commit all of their resources, mental and physical, to work together toward achieving a task.
