‘Work is the expression of our energy and our dreams.’

‘Significance requires trust, and trust comes from consistently keeping promises.’

‘Agency gives us control over our time, and it encourages us to choose what our contribution looks like.’

‘Dignity flows from agency, allowing us to be treated as humans, not cogs.’

Seth Godin

‘Tools can create efficiency, but value can only come from change, from humanity, and from the rare form of connection that comes with significance.’

‘What you look like is far less important than the ability to involve others in your journey.’

‘The people you lure to follow instructions are rarely the people who will help you build something of innovation and substance.’

‘

‘Leadership is the art of creating something significant.’-

Seth Godin

‘If we care enough to build the best job you ever had, the team notices. And if people who care build something that they’re proud of, the market notices.’

‘Leaders don’t need authority, but they must coordinate the trust, focus, and connection of people who are enrolled in a journey to do work that matters.’

‘All of us in the business world, whether we realize it or not, signed up for a sales job.’

‘You are always selling. Your products. Your ideas. Your whole self.’

‘If you’re truly passionate about what it is you’re selling and can tell a story about why you love your product and your company, you don’t need to avail yourself of any slick tricks you might associate with selling.’

‘The feeling your customer leaves with after that conversation will inform their decision to come back or go somewhere else.’

‘You can’t own a business without owning your mistakes.’

‘Employees don’t really want an environment with no rules; they want to be engaged in a worthy cause and feel proud of what they create.’

Sometimes, no product is better than a substandard one.’

‘How you comport yourself in all your daily interactions with employees, clients, and peers is an act of salesmanship, because the way you act is an advertisement to keep working with you or run the other way, to dive in and invest more time and money in what you’re doing, or to cut losses and bounce.’

‘The healthiest businesses are the ones that operate in a culture of accountability.’

‘Moments of crisis reveal who a person really is.’
