The joy is in the getting there. The beginning years of starting your business, the camaraderie when you're in the pit together, are the best years of your life. So rather than being so focused on when you get big and powerful, if you can just get the juice out of that... don't miss it.
Barbara Corcoran
Empathy for the people you're working with and being aware of their needs...that's the big kahuna in managing people.
Barbara Corcoran
