Great companies in the way they work, start with great leaders. — © Steve Ballmer
Great companies in the way they work, start with great leaders.
Great companies with the way they work, first start with great leaders.
Bad companies are destroyed by crisis. Good companies survive them. Great individuals, like great companies, find a way to transform weakness into strength.
All companies of any size have to continue to push to make sure you get the right leaders, the right team, the right people to be fast acting, and fast moving in the marketplace. We've got great leaders, and we continue to attract and promote great new leaders.
A tremendous chief executive in a small market will never be great. All great companies start with great markets.
Authenticity is about imperfection. And authenticity is a very human quality. To be authentic is to be at peace with your imperfections. The great leaders are not the strongest, they are the ones who are honest about their weaknesses. The great leaders are not the smartest; they are the ones who admit how much they don't know. The great leaders can't do everything; they are the ones who look to others to help them. Great leaders don't see themselves as great; they see themselves as human.
Great leaders don't blame the tools they are given. Great leaders work to sharpen them.
NewSpace companies are staffed by young, new leaders who worship the giants who got us here, such as the recently passed Neil Armstrong, and are eager to work with NASA to do great things together - but we have to both give them a chance and get out of the way.
Great stories start with great opening lines. 'I'm a lineman for the county' - what a great way to start a song.
On what high-performing companies should be striving to create: A great place for great people to do great work.
I had great teachers, great ensembles, and great companies to work with who supported my career.
Business leaders should provide expertise in service of our country. My predecessors at GE have done so, as have leaders of many other great American companies.
I'm going to start a lot of companies. These are not sham companies. These are great businesses.
Making consumer choices that reward eco-friendly products and companies is a great way to start.
You can start with a great director and great actors and have a great script - and it still just doesn't work. It's kind of a mystery how that happens.
I'm from the school that great performers and great leaders create more great leaders. Give people other experiences, other responsibilities. Have them join organizations within the company and outside the company.
We love great melodies and great songs that have great hooks and melodies, so we start a little bit more on that side as opposed to other people that start more lyric-based. Sometimes we'll do it the other way.
