Peter Senge
When executives lead as teachers, stewards, and designers, they fill roles that are much more subtle and long-term than those of power-wielding hierarchical leaders.
Peter Senge
Learning cannot be disassociated from action.
Peter Senge
The easy way out usually leads back in.
Peter Senge
The key to success isn't just thinking about what we are doing but doing something about what we are thinking.
