“People who feel good about themselves produce good results.”

“80% of your really important results will come from 20% of your goals.”

“If you can’t tell me what you’d like to be happening, you don’t have a problem yet. You’re just complaining.”

“Everyone is a potential winner.”

“…how can you be an effective manager unless you and your people are clear about goals and what good performance looks like?”

“Help people reach their full potential. Catch them doing something right.”

“Praising people doesn’t always work if it isn’t combined with Re-Directs to correct mistakes when they occur.”

“The best minute I spend is the one I invest in people.”

“We are not just our behavior. We are the person managing our behavior.”
