“Organizations are no longer built on force but on trust. The existence of trust between people does not necessarily mean that they like one another. It means that they understand one another. Taking responsibility for relationships is therefore an absolute necessity. It is a duty.

― Peter F. Drucker, Managing Oneself

― Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History
