Harvard Business Review Quotes

Organizations can’t change their culture unless individual employees change their behavior—and changing behavior is hard.

It can be dangerous to be right at the outset. Managers in some LCD-first companies interpreted the pivot point as an unconditional endorsement of everything they had been doing. As a result, they failed to recognize the need to rethink some details of their technology, such as the importance of color displays, and their complacency helped former plasma companies pull ahead.

Marketing leaders instead must ask, “What values and goals guide our brand strategy, what capabilities drive marketing excellence, and what structures and ways of working will support them?” Structure must follow strategy—not the other way around.

Marc de Swaan Arons

When you walk in silence your excellence will always speak for you.

You have to grab the goal, visualise your vision, excel in excellence and then become distinct in distinction.

What the average call excellent, the excellent call average.

You need to choose your association according to your vision.
