The 1st Question The Effective Decision-maker Asks Is: 'is This A Generic Situation Or An Exception?'

Nobody In The World Is As Good At Making Decisions As The Japanese.

Nothing Else, Perhaps, Distinguishes Effective Executives As Much As Their Tender Loving Care Of Time.

Ideas Are Somewhat Like Babies - They Are Born Small, Immature, And Shapeless. They Are Promise Rather Than Fulfillment. In The Innovative Company Executives Do Not Say, "this Is A Damn-fool Idea."

Adequacy Is The Enemy Of Excellence.
