When Doing A Job —

Free Discussion Requires An Atmosphere Unembarrassed By Any Suggestion Of Authority Or Even Respect.

What It Takes To Do A Job Will Not Be Learned From Management Courses. It Is Principally A Matter Of Experience, The Proper Attitude, And Common Sense — None Of Which Can Be Taught In A Classroom... Human Experience Shows That People, Not Organizations Or Management Systems, Get Things Done.

Success Teaches Us Nothing; Only Failure Teaches.

To Doubt One's Own First Principles Is The Mark Of A Civilized Man. Don't Defend Past Actions; What Is Right Today May Be Wrong Tomorrow. Don't Be Consistent; Consistency Is The Refuge Of Fools.

More Than Ambition, More Than Ability, It Is Rules That Limit Contribution; Rules Are The Lowest Common Denominator Of Human Behavior. They Are A Substitute For Rational Thought.
