Winners like to work with other winners. If you want to build a great business, you must hire the best. Because only the best can give you the best.

When you hire average, you get average. When you hire the best, you get the best. When you are around the best, you attract more excellent people into your world.

‘Work on your people, not for your people.’

‘Great leaders aren’t necessarily great coaches, but great coaches are great leaders.’

‘Complacency can be just as dangerous to the team’s morale as negativity.’

‘Managers spend too much time with the people who need the attention instead of those who deserve the attention.’

‘The way to move the middle up is to chop off the bottom and grow the top.’

‘A true game plan needs consistent reviewing, adjustments, and updates.’

‘We will do only what we are held accountable to do.’

‘Just because it has never been done doesn’t mean it can’t be done.’

‘Challenges make you go bigger.’

‘What makes you great is not what you’ve been doing for fifteen years- what makes you great is you.’

‘If there are no new resources to be added, the ability to do new stuff requires taking resources from old stuff. Simple but difficult.’

‘A company can be really clear about what it wants to accomplish, yet struggle to articulate the specific tasks that will make those goals come true.’

‘You can lead a transformation from the top, but you can’t implement a transformation from the top.’

Patty Azzarello

‘As a leader, you need to demonstrate your commitment to the transformation with every decision that you make every single day.’

Your job as a leader is not to make the best of the team you have, but to build the team you need.’

‘Success lies in getting the whole organization to feel personal ownership in the transformation.‘

‘Employees who know why their work matters do a better job.’
