Management Quote of the Week

"Managers must manage" Hal Geneen
This is a simple quote that says a lot. It doesn't matter what the economy, the market or the competition throws at us we must accomplish our goals. We must mange to hit our goals in any situation. This is taken from Geneen's great book Managing.

Leadership Thoughts

One of the first books I read after becoming a manger was "Managing" by Hal Geneen. Geneen was the chairman of the board of ITT. Each chapter started with a quote from Geneen. My favorite was:

"Managers Must Manage"

This might seem too simple to be worth remembering, but think about this statement. no matter what happens, bad economy, new competition whatever, we must manage. There is no sense complaining r offering excuses, we just need to get it done. We must manage!

Keep Smiling, Keep Leading!

Thanks Jim Busch
