Quotes
“People are [a company’s] capital—they are an asset, and I don’t think every
company looks at it that way. The strategic ones do.”

“Becoming more strategic involves change, and a lot of us are resistant to
change, . . . but the way you get over this is by looking to competitors, other
industries, and even your personal life.”
