Words for Leaders

Over the last 30 plus years I've read a lot of business books. Most I read and discard, but there are a handful of books that I have read and reread and frequently recommend and refer to. One of these books is "Up the Organization" by Robert Townsend. He offered some very interesting insights into both organizational and personal psychology. Here's a quote from Townsend that I like:

"If you don't do it excellently, don't do it at all. Because if it's not excellent, it won't be profitable or fun, and if you're not in business for fun or profit, what the hell are you doing there?"

This is a good question to ask yourself and your people. Excellence is simply holding yourself and your team to a higher standard.

Make a difference!
