Your only limitation is yo12urself!

It has been an amazing journey. In 1979, after 18 years working with data processing companies, I started Productivity Inc. - Press by publishing a newsletter called P ...more

Quotes by Norman Bodek (?)

“The reasons why people cannot achieve their goals are not because they lack abilities or character, but because they are setting their goals in a wrong way and trying to achieve them in a wrong way. “ – Takashi Harada”

“This is where you should start. Develop a total system for continuous improvement not just going after the flavor of the month: six sigma, kaizen blitz, etc. They are all good tools but you should plan what the entire ‘ship’ you will build looks like before you start using the tools to build it.”
― Norman Bodek, Kaikaku - The Power and Magic of Lean: A Study in Knowledge Transfer

“Self-reliance is the autonomy of individuals to navigate issues as they arise, control his or her own path, and sustain the resources to get there.”
