“A company should limit its growth based on its ability to attract enough of the right people.”
― Jim Collins, Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't

“Bad decisions made with good intentions, are still bad decisions.”
― Jim Collins, How The Mighty Fall: And Why Some Companies Never Give In

“When [what you are deeply passionate about, what you can be best in the world at and what drives your economic engine] come together, not only does your work move toward greatness, but so does your life. For, in the end, it is impossible to have a great life unless it is a meaningful life. And it is very difficult to have a meaningful life without meaningful work. Perhaps, then, you might gain that rare tranquility that comes from knowing that you’ve had a hand in creating something of intrinsic excellence that makes a contribution. Indeed, you might even gain that deepest of all satisfactions: knowing that your short time here on this earth has been well spent, and that it mattered.”
