To tell great stories, you need great talent.
Innovate or die.
Create an environment in which people refuse to accept mediocrity.
Take responsibility when you screw up.
Excellence and fairness don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
sense of right and wrong—is a kind of secret leadership weapon.
Value ability more than experience,
Managing creativity is an art, not a science.
Don’t start negatively, and don’t start small.
If you want innovation, you need to grant permission to fail.
Don’t be in the business of playing it safe.
Don’t let ambition get ahead of opportunity. By fixating on a future job or project, you become impatient with where you are.
Too often, we lead from a place of fear rather than courage,
No one wants to follow a pessimist.
Long shots aren’t usually as long as they seem.
It should be about the future, not the past.
If something doesn’t feel right to you, it won’t be right for you.
In any negotiation, be clear about where you stand from the beginning.
It’s not good to have power for too long.
approach your work and life with a sense of genuine humility.
