Matthew B. Crawford
“I quickly realized there was more thinking going on in the bike shop than in my previous job at the think tank.”
Matthew B. Crawford, Shop Class as Soulcraft: An Inquiry into the Value of Work

Neil Postman
“the assumptions controlling a news show are “that bite-sized is best, that complexity must be avoided, that nuances are dispensable, that qualifications impede the simple message, that visual stimulation is a substitute for thought, and that verbal precision is an anachronism.”[3]”
Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

“Burnout has less to do with workload and more to do with internal and external leadership anxiety.”
Steve Cuss, Managing Leadership Anxiety: Yours and Theirs

Neil Postman
“Together, this ensemble of electronic techniques called into being a new world—a peek-a-boo world, where now this event, now that, pops into view for a moment, then vanishes again. It is a world without much coherence or sense; a world that does not ask us, indeed, does not permit us to do anything;”
Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

Scott Sauls
“It is especially important for Christian leaders to consider how they can lead in such a way that nonbelievers feel compelled to consider Jesus. “So far as it depends on you,” Scripture says, “live peaceably with all” (Romans 12:18). Instead of using our platforms and influence to persuade other people of faith to take a moral stand against secular ethics, what if we focused on embodying Jesus’s Spirit-filled, life-giving ethics beautifully and compellingly?”
Scott Sauls, From Weakness to Strength: 8 Vulnerabilities That Can Bring Out the Best in Your Leadership
