Social media requires that business leaders start thinking like small-town shop owners. This means taking the long view and avoiding short-term benchmarks to gauge progress. It means allowing the personality, heart and soul of the people who run all levels of the business to show. ~ Gary Vaynerchuk
Business Leaders quotes by Gary Vaynerchuk
I think that being a business a leader that treads all over people to get to the top is actually not the way I think to become a successful business leader. ~ Richard Branson
Business Leaders quotes by Richard Branson
America's highest economic need is higher ethical standards
enforced by strict laws and upheld by responsible business leaders. ~ George W. Bush
Business Leaders quotes by George W. Bush
The BoDs and business leaders must work with the right mindset to make good policies and create an inclusive organization with every dip in the business life cycle. ~ Pearl Zhu
Business Leaders quotes by Pearl Zhu
Although being human brings me the greatest delight~ being human also means that I have limitations ~ Nina Montgomery
Business Leaders quotes by Nina Montgomery
I worry that business leaders are more interested in material gain than they are in having the patience to build up a strong organization, and a strong organization starts with caring for their people. ~ John Wooden
Business Leaders quotes by John Wooden
Our society does not give nearly enough credit to business leaders who create jobs, behave ethically and provide products and services that enhance our lives. ~ Mark Skousen
Business Leaders quotes by Mark Skousen
Your vision not only becomes the future place you desire to live, but it becomes a foundation for your life's decisions. ~ Lisa A. Mininni
Business Leaders quotes by Lisa A. Mininni
Great business leaders of our time stand above the crowd not because of what they do, but what they don't do. ~ Shawn Casemore
Business Leaders quotes by Shawn Casemore
America's real business leaders understand unless or until the middle class regains its footing and its faith, capitalism remains vulnerable. ~ Robert Reich
Business Leaders quotes by Robert Reich
While big-business leaders and firms can be highly productive, servants of consumers in a free market economy, they are also all too often, seekers after subsidies, contracts, privileges, or cartels furnished by big government. Often, business lobbyists and leaders are the sparkplugs for the statist, interventionist system. ~ Murray Rothbard
Business Leaders quotes by Murray Rothbard
To rule your mind, control your gates.
To rule your world, take hold of its gates. ~ Martin Uzochukwu Ugwu
Business Leaders quotes by Martin Uzochukwu Ugwu
Because we are a globally connected village, we need
to remember that our choices are not isolated. They have
a powerful ripple effect, and that ripple is global. ~ Linda Fisher Thornton
Business Leaders quotes by Linda Fisher Thornton
Research on the human brain has shown it is predisposed to think in the terms of a story.36 This predisposition is continuously reinforced and strengthened throughout the life of your brain. Imaging studies have shown only a small, quarter-sized region of your brain lights up when someone tells you a series of facts. However, when someone tells you a story laced with those facts, or those facts in action, your entire brain lights up. Not only can you program your mind with a story - you can program someone else's mind. ~ Isaiah Hankel
Business Leaders quotes by Isaiah Hankel
The situation - having to choose between imposing higher retail prices and reducing investments and military spending - created a dilemma for the government: deciding between conflict with the public or with the Party economic elite. But not making a decision heightened the risk that, as the crisis developed, there would be conflict with both the public and the elite.18 The new generation of leaders clearly did not understand this. The traditional management of the economy was oriented on natural, rather than abstract, parameters. The development of cattle breeding was discussed at the highest level more frequently than the country's budget. Industry and business leaders regarded finances as necessary but dreary bookkeeping.19 In addition, information on the real state of the budget, hard currency reserves, foreign debt, and balance of payments was available only to an extremely narrow circle of people, many of whom understood nothing about it anyway. ~ Yegor Gaidar
Business Leaders quotes by Yegor Gaidar
Business leaders take things far too seriously, and forget that most of the time people spend in their lives is at work, and it should be fun. ~ Richard Branson
Business Leaders quotes by Richard Branson
But in the military you don't get trusted positions just because of your ability. You also have to attract the notice of superior officers. You have to be liked. You have to fit in with the system. You have to look like what the officers above you think that officers should look like. You have to think in ways that they are comfortable with.
The result was that you ended up with a command structure that was top-heavy with guys who looked good in uniform and talked right and did well enough not to embarrass themselves, while the really good ones quietly did all the serious work and bailed out their superiors and got blamed for errors they had advised against until they eventually got out.
That was the military. ~ Orson Scott Card
Business Leaders quotes by Orson Scott Card
If you're an over thinker or try to anticipate every barrier-before beginning, ask yourself, if I had to accomplish this project in three steps or less, what would they be? ~ Lisa A. Mininni
Business Leaders quotes by Lisa A. Mininni
Business leaders, social justice groups, farmers and ranchers, doctors and nurses and people from all walks of life are concerned about the climate threat. ~ Frances Beinecke
Business Leaders quotes by Frances Beinecke
Don't let quick wins distract your focus from long-term goals. ~ Sascha Bosio
Business Leaders quotes by Sascha Bosio
Business leaders, labor unions, governors, mayors, congressmen and presidents have all complained about a lack of funding for years, but aside from a one-time cash infusion from the stimulus program, nothing much has changed. There is still no consensus on how to solve the problem or where to get the massive amounts of money needed to fix it, just another example of political paralysis in Washington. ~ Steve Kroft
Business Leaders quotes by Steve Kroft
Do business managers have a commitment to anything more than the success of their company and to making money? It would be hard to say that they do. Indeed, many business leaders deny that there is any conflict between self-interest and the interests of all. ~ Peter Singer
Business Leaders quotes by Peter Singer
When the initial effort of political and business leaders to influence public opinion on an issue is to threaten rather than to engage and persuade, they further arouse public opposition rather than win support. ~ Preston Manning
Business Leaders quotes by Preston Manning
Chase the story behind the stock, not the money on the table. Money will make you rich, but the story will make you wealthy. ~ Vijay Kedia
Business Leaders quotes by Vijay Kedia
One cannot dispute the fact that giving poor black adolescents job skills, if it is self-evident that they do not possess the academic skills to go to college, is a good thing in itself. But the business leaders who put emphasis on filling entry-level job slots are too frequently the people who, by prior lobbying and voting patterns and their impact upon social policy, have made it all but certain that few of these urban kids would get the education in their early years that would have made them look like college prospects by their secondary years. First we circumscribe their destinies and then we look at the diminished product and we say, "Let's be pragmatic and do with them what we can. ~ Jonathan Kozol
Business Leaders quotes by Jonathan Kozol
But it's more an up-versus-down issue because the research has shown that opinion leaders, whether they're elected officials, journalists, business leaders - it's academics, religious leaders - they have dramatically different views on immigration. A ~ Mark Krikorian
Business Leaders quotes by Mark Krikorian
Regardless of who you are~ you can not escape the fact that you are human. ~ Nina Montgomery
Business Leaders quotes by Nina Montgomery
A lot of people, including business leaders, think the future belongs to China. Globalization is not a zero-sum game, but we need to hone our skills to stay in play. ~ Jon Meacham
Business Leaders quotes by Jon Meacham
World peace is not something that can be realized simply by politicians signing treaties, or by business leaders creating economic cooperation. True and lasting peace will be realized only by forging bonds of trust between people at the deepest level, in the depths of their very lives. ~ Daisaku Ikeda
Business Leaders quotes by Daisaku Ikeda
If you get to the top of the ladder by pushing people off, you'll find that there won't be a ladder left or people to help you get back down. ~ Aliza Licht
Business Leaders quotes by Aliza Licht
Leaders are never measured by their success but rather by the success of those they've been entrusted to lead. Therefore, a leader can never be considered successful until those they lead are successful. ~ Greg Cagle
Business Leaders quotes by Greg Cagle
Their analysis revealed that a number of psychopathic attributes were actually more common in business leaders than in so-called disturbed criminals--attributes such as superficial charm, egocentricity, persuasiveness, lack of empathy, independence, and focus--and the main difference between the groups was in the more "antisocial" aspects of the syndrome: the criminals' lawbreaking, physical aggression, and impulsivity dials were cranked up higher. ~ Kevin Dutton
Business Leaders quotes by Kevin Dutton
Rome was not built in a day, but Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed in a day. ~ Vijay Kedia
Business Leaders quotes by Vijay Kedia
A person who is assured of the love of God will see his fellow men in a different light and treat them and himself differently, and of course this also applies to business leaders. ~ Desmond Tutu
Business Leaders quotes by Desmond Tutu
PR is everything and everywhere. PR is the King and the Slave, the Game Changer and the Boss, the revolution! Indeed, the Global PR Revolution! ~ Maxim Behar
Business Leaders quotes by Maxim Behar
A business leader has to keep their organization focused on the mission. That sounds easy, but it can be tremendously challenging in today's competitive and ever-changing business environment. A leader also has to motivate potential partners to join. ~ Meg Whitman
Business Leaders quotes by Meg Whitman
Currently, we allow our political and business leaders to get away with murder. Now is the time to change that. We need direct liability for those who are destroying our future and this planet. We need fast, profound and systemic change. History only moves forward when courageous people get up and act. That's why I support this citizens' initiative to recognise ecocide as the crime it is. ~ Kumi Naidoo
Business Leaders quotes by Kumi Naidoo
There is a real diversity of talent and background on the A list so as to better reflect our society in all walks. There are people who have been candidates before, Councillors, Doctors, business leaders, charity campaigners. ~ Adam Rickitt
Business Leaders quotes by Adam Rickitt
Employees are people. Customers are people. Same for entrepreneurs, business leaders. Conclusion? Companies are created by people and run by people, to service the needs and wants of people. Despite this fairly obvious observation, we tend to manage business and personal matters differently. ~ Alan Philips
Business Leaders quotes by Alan Philips
I think that business leaders today have to be more rounded than they used to be, they have to be completely multi-functional and fast-moving. ~ Stuart Rose
Business Leaders quotes by Stuart Rose
From 1976 to 1983, Washington supported a devastating military dictatorship in Argentina that ran all branches of government, outlawed elections, and encouraged school and business leaders to provide information on subversive people. The administration took control of the police, banned political and union organizations, and tried to eliminate all oppositional elements in the country through harassment, torture, and murder. Journalists, students, and union members faced a particularly large amount of bloody repression, thus ridding the nation of a whole generation of social movement leaders. As was the case in other Latin American countries, the threat of communism and armed guerrilla movements was used as an excuse for Argentina's dictatorial crackdowns. Hundreds of torture camps and prisons were created. Many of the dead were put into mass graves or thrown out of places into the ocean. Five hundred babies of the murdered were given to torturers' families and the assets of the dead totaling in the tens of millions of dollars, were all divided up among the perpetrators of the nightmare. Thirty thousand people were killed in Argentina's repression. ~ Benjamin Dangl
Business Leaders quotes by Benjamin Dangl
If you want to break through to higher levels of performance, you must allow yourself to be restructured. ~ William A. Adams
Business Leaders quotes by William A. Adams
This years keynote session is a clear reminder that wireless data technology is expanding its reach beyond that of an alternative to wireline telephony. We have gathered an exclusive group of business leaders to share how wireless is being integrated into their companys business strategies and what it means for their bottom lines. The presence of these telecom, media and entertainment giants on our center stage is a great indicator of the impact wireless data has made on countless industries, ~ Steve Largent
Business Leaders quotes by Steve Largent
Those leaders who fail, lack the capability to resonate their idea & thoughts ~ Aayush Jain
Business Leaders quotes by Aayush Jain
Many business leaders today view their jobs as entailing responsibility for the welfare of the wider community. These individuals do not define themselves as profit-making machines whose only reason for existing is to satisfy escalating expectation for immediate gain. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Business Leaders quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
One reason the United States is one of three countries in the world that do not have any form of paid maternity leave is that many American business leaders, like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, oppose any family-friendly policies. They scare people into thinking maternity leave will be a job killer. ~ Madeleine M. Kunin
Business Leaders quotes by Madeleine M. Kunin
I see the God complex around me all the time in my fellow economists. I see it in our business leaders. I see it in the politicians we vote for - people who, in the face of an incredibly complicated world, are nevertheless absolutely convinced that they understand the way that the world works. ~ Tim Harford
Business Leaders quotes by Tim Harford
We're going to march on Washington with a host of Republicans, Democrats, business leaders, legislators. ~ Gray Davis
Business Leaders quotes by Gray Davis
As a speaker, business leader or marketer of any type, the onus is now on each of us to become equally capable of communicating very personally with a seemingly endless number of people connected by social technologies. ~ Simon Mainwaring
Business Leaders quotes by Simon Mainwaring
A small businesses ability to gain an edge for a profitable niche is not by just focusing on the dynamic market gap, but by identifying a market within the gap. ~ Wayne Chirisa
Business Leaders quotes by Wayne Chirisa
If there is one trait that your brand must speak of, it is trust. ~ Idowu Koyenikan
Business Leaders quotes by Idowu Koyenikan
When we talk about change, we, the business leaders, have to implement it. We have to look at what we're not doing and what we should be doing. ~ Ofra Strauss
Business Leaders quotes by Ofra Strauss
As business leaders we need to understand that lack of data is not the issue. Most businesses have more than enough data to use constructively; we just don't know how to use it. The reality is that most businesses are already data rich, but insight poor. ~ Bernard Marr
Business Leaders quotes by Bernard Marr
I think business leaders all over the world should not just think of how we can make lots of money, which is fine, but to take some of the problems in the world and get out there and tackle them using business. I think that if businesses do that we can get on top of these problems. ~ Richard Branson
Business Leaders quotes by Richard Branson
I have found that we need to maintain relationships with all spheres of society: the local community, politicians from all parties, business leaders, artists, and farmers....We don't favor one kind of person over another, or one political party over another...My goal is for them to use the method and concept of Chan practice to benefit their work and their organizations....That is our duty. ~ Sheng Yen
Business Leaders quotes by Sheng Yen
Conquer your customer as you would a woman ~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Business Leaders quotes by Bangambiki Habyarimana
Senior management approval and buy-in is essential to the success of the overall BCP effort. If possible, you should attempt to have the plan endorsed by the top executive in your business - the chief executive officer, chairman, president, or similar business leader. This move demonstrates the importance of the plan to the entire organization and showcases the business leader's commitment to business continuity. The signature of such an individual on the plan also gives it much greater weight and credibility in the eyes of other senior managers, who might otherwise brush it off as a necessary but trivial IT initiative. ~ James Michael Stewart
Business Leaders quotes by James Michael Stewart
My parents ingrained in me early on that the perfect score is always something to strive for. I want to win and I want to succeed no matter what. ~ Andrea Jung
Business Leaders quotes by Andrea Jung
When we are right, we earn. When we are wrong, we learn. ~ Vijay Kedia
Business Leaders quotes by Vijay Kedia
Fear is the single biggest barrier to creativity. Unless we're brave enough to risk looking foolish, we'll inevitably find ourselves sticking to the status quo. That fear is disabling, One of the things we need to do as business leaders is build and nurture cultures that encourage responsible risk taking so making mistakes is OK. ~ Josh Linkner
Business Leaders quotes by Josh Linkner
If politicians and business leaders become "protectors of creation" nature shall be saved. ~ Auliq Ice
Business Leaders quotes by Auliq Ice
I'm calling for us all to be The Inspired CEO, Conscious Evolutionary Officers of our own lives and businesses. ~ Tia Walker
Business Leaders quotes by Tia Walker
We can't wait for Washington. Business leaders are going to have to galvanize their own constituencies and do everything they can to demonstrate confidence in the economy, and I think that can be contagious. ~ Howard Schultz
Business Leaders quotes by Howard Schultz
We need leaders, we need political leaders and we need business leaders, and my hope for this book is that it helps create that next generation of business leaders that will lead us into the future. ~ James White Fellow Of INSTAAR
Business Leaders quotes by James White Fellow Of INSTAAR
Emotional security is the hall-mark of great leadership. ~ Krishna Saagar Rao
Business Leaders quotes by Krishna Saagar Rao
We need a new way of doing business to get out of the present crisis ... Absolute greed has come close to bankrupting the world. Thanks to the crisis that certain businesses have dumped on everyone a lot of people are going to suffer on a global scale. All of us must learn. It is all the more important that those business leaders that are left standing try to be a force for good. ~ Richard Branson
Business Leaders quotes by Richard Branson
The number of business leaders who asked me to lower their taxes can be counted on one hand. ~ Jack Markell
Business Leaders quotes by Jack Markell
What is happening on the inside, is reflected on the outside. If you lack the confidence, you very well may feel pushy in selling your product or service. If you lack a clear plan on exactly how to grow your business, you're going to play it safe rather than do what it takes. If you feel desperate, your prospect no doubt will feel your push. If you're unclear about your exact target market, then implementing focused marketing will be nearly impossible because you don't know where your target market hangs out, their preferences, and even what and where they buy. The more you nurture your inner entrepreneur, the more it affects the outcomes of your business. ~ Lisa A. Mininni
Business Leaders quotes by Lisa A. Mininni
Business leaders cannot be bystanders. ~ Howard Schultz
Business Leaders quotes by Howard Schultz
What is clear is that business leaders must commit to champion change - to be transparent about their goals for change, to align their incentives systems to drive the change, and to make sure their work environments are flexible in a way that allows men and women who choose to work to be able to achieve all of their potential. ~ Beth Brooke
Business Leaders quotes by Beth Brooke
I'm a man of some intelligence. I've had some education, passed the bar, practiced law. I've been a teacher and I deal with men of substance, statesman, business leaders, the clergy ... So why do I spend my time arguing with Dizzy Dean? ~ Branch Rickey
Business Leaders quotes by Branch Rickey
The minute you stop caring about your business, is the same minute your business stops caring about you. ~ Steven Ivy Attorney Entrepreneur
Business Leaders quotes by Steven Ivy Attorney Entrepreneur
During my many years in international business and public life, I have had the good fortune of sitting down for lunch with people with whom I completely disagreed, in practice and principle: Soviet communists, heads of state from various unsavory regimes, benighted religious figures, corrupt business leaders. ~ Edgar Bronfman, Sr.
Business Leaders quotes by Edgar Bronfman, Sr.
I say, 'Get me some poets as managers.' Poets are our original systems thinkers. They contemplate the world in which we live and feel obligated to interpret, and give expression to it in a way that makes the reader understand how that world runs. Poets, those unheralded systems thinkers, are our true digital thinkers. It is from their midst that I believe we will draw tomorrow's new business leaders.
Sidney Harman, CEO Multimillionaire of a stereo components company ~ Daniel H. Pink
Business Leaders quotes by Daniel H. Pink
The power of a successful salesman is not putting his hand in the customer's pocket to pull his money out. but rather manipulate the customer's mind to let him put his hand and happily pull the money and give it to you ~ Hisham Fawzi
Business Leaders quotes by Hisham Fawzi
You are in control of your priorities – you can erase old priorities and define new priorities at will. ~ Isaiah Hankel
Business Leaders quotes by Isaiah Hankel
I think one purpose is very clear among corporations and business leaders: make profits, deliver high return for stockholders, conquer markets, service consumers and create jobs. But in today's world, demands from corporations and leaders are much more than that. We need to understand what people really want at the very end. ~ Vicente Fox
Business Leaders quotes by Vicente Fox
Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion. ~ Jack Welch
Business Leaders quotes by Jack Welch
The Hollywood left insists on painting business persons as arch criminals, even though it's ridiculous. They like to depict free enterprise, capitalism and business leaders as a source of evil and criminality. Somehow they think that will influence enough people to further their left-wing agenda. ~ James Cook
Business Leaders quotes by James Cook
The Highest Reward for men and women 's devotion and dedication to excellence is not what one gets from it but what one he or she becomes through it. ~ Bill Britt
Business Leaders quotes by Bill Britt
Execution is the job of the business leader. ~ Lawrence Bossidy
Business Leaders quotes by Lawrence Bossidy
The biggest part of my job now is to quickly develop successors, and around the world I am working to develop new business leaders in the company. ~ Tadashi Yanai
Business Leaders quotes by Tadashi Yanai
Policy makers and business leaders take note: money matters. But often the best use of money as a motivator is to pay people enough to take the issue of money off the table - so that people can focus on the work rather than on the cash. ~ Daniel H. Pink
Business Leaders quotes by Daniel H. Pink
When you go into your customary barber shop, you will wait for the man who gives you a little better shave, a little trimmer hair-cut. Business leaders are looking for the same things in their offices that you look for in the barber shop. ~ Charles M. Schwab
Business Leaders quotes by Charles M. Schwab
Many business leaders are seeing the relationship between long term success and sustainability, and that's very heartening. ~ Jacqueline Novogratz
Business Leaders quotes by Jacqueline Novogratz
Business leaders cultivate vision to unify teams; the teams cultivate business to fulfill the vision. ~ Orrin Woodward
Business Leaders quotes by Orrin Woodward
Entrepreneur, with the growth of social media and the global market now local, now is the time to grow your leadership brand. ~ Onyi Anyado
Business Leaders quotes by Onyi Anyado
Overall, more than fifty-nine thousand factories and production facilities were shut down all across America over the last decade, and employment in the core manufacturing sector fell from 17.1 million to 11.8 million from January 2001 to December 2011, a punishing toll for what historically had been the best sector for steady, good-paying middle-class jobs. By pursuing a deliberate strategy of continual layoffs and by holding down wages, both of which yielded higher profits for investors, business leaders were not only squeezing their employees, they were slowly strangling the middle-class consumer demand that the nation needed for the next economic expansion. ~ Hedrick Smith
Business Leaders quotes by Hedrick Smith
The world can no longer be left to mere diplomats, politicians, and business leaders. They have done the best they could, no doubt. But this is an age for spiritual heroes- a time for men and women to be heroic in their faith and in spiritual character and power. The greatest danger to the Christian church today is that of pitching its message too low. ~ Dallas Willard
Business Leaders quotes by Dallas Willard
When we step into positions of leadership, we make a whole set of promises we may not know we are making. ~ Bob Anderson
Business Leaders quotes by Bob Anderson
We need to be doing a better job preparing our teens and young adults for employment during their high school and college years. But just as importantly, we need to be educating workplaces, job coaches, corporations, and business leaders about the benefits of hiring a person on the spectrum. ~ Chantal Sicile-Kira
Business Leaders quotes by Chantal Sicile-Kira
If you are not aiming to establish instant credibility and trust with your target clientèle, you are settling for cents on the dollar, and you are failing to run your business in a manner that will get you and your clients to the level of success you both deserve. ~ Stewart Andrew Alexander
Business Leaders quotes by Stewart Andrew Alexander
The true measure of the value of any business leader and manager is performance. ~ Brian Tracy
Business Leaders quotes by Brian Tracy
By my count, more business leaders have failed and derailed because of arrogance than any other character flaw. ~ Harvey MacKay
Business Leaders quotes by Harvey MacKay
Steve Jobs is the most epic entrepreneur of all time. He served as a guiding light for any emerging businessperson who wanted to learn how things should get done. He'll be looked at as one of the best business leaders of all time, and certainly one of the best tech entrepreneurs. ~ Aaron Levie
Business Leaders quotes by Aaron Levie
America is a country of entrepreneurship and great business leaders. ~ Nicky Oppenheimer
Business Leaders quotes by Nicky Oppenheimer
We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. God offers life, but not an improved old life. The life He offers is life out of death. ~ A.W. Tozer
Business Leaders quotes by A.W. Tozer
From my experience in working with bureaucrats and politicians, if you are a credible business group, they will definitely help you. At the end of the day, they, too, want development of their constituency, state or country. ~ Gautam Adani
Business Leaders quotes by Gautam Adani
Contrary to all myths and beliefs, introverts make the best salespeople. ~ Matthew Pollard
Business Leaders quotes by Matthew Pollard
My fastest time in high school was a 4:29 mile. I think cross-country has something to do with my longevity in my business. When you're in an eight-mile race, you never give up. ~ Alice Cooper
Business Leaders quotes by Alice Cooper
