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.

Words for Leaders

Just to show I don't hold a grudge, here's a British quote in honor of
Independence Day:

"Leadership is about saying no, not yes. Saying yes is easy"
Tony Blair

As a leader we often have to tell people things they don't want to hear. Leaders have to stay focused on what is best for the group. They have to set limits and do what is best in the long run. Anyone can say yes every time, it takes a leader to say no when it is the right thing to say.

Make a difference.

Thanks Jim Busch
