More quotes by Tom Peters
Only pissed-off people change the world.
Tom Peters
Steve Jobs is perhaps the most competitive human being I have ever met in my life, and yet I would argue one of the most artistic human beings I have ever met in my life. You can trash the movies all you want, but they do have an artistic component. And yet brutal competition knows no peers when it comes to Hollywood.
Tom Peters
Celebrate what you want to see more of.
Tom Peters
If future competitiveness depends on treating people as an important part of the institution, the least respectful thing I can imagine doing to a human being is asking him to urinate in a cup.
Tom Peters
Collections of books and other documents, either printed or electronic, are a form of congregation.
Tom Peters
Forget all the conventional 'rules' but one. There is one golden rule: Stick to topics you deeply care about and don't keep your passion buttoned inside your vest. An audience's biggest turn-on is the speaker's obvious enthusiasm. If you are lukewarm about the issue, forget it!
Tom Peters
Digital ink technology holds substantial promise in terms of legibility, portability, and power consumption, but I am less confident about the communication aspect.
Tom Peters
One size NEVER fits all. One size fits one. Period
Tom Peters
Confidence means non-paralysis, a willingness to act, and act decisively, to start new things and cut failing ventures off.
Tom Peters
Organizations exist to serve. Period. Leaders live to serve. Period.
Tom Peters
Passion. The life of an entrepreneur is occasionally exhilarating, and almost always exhausting. Only unbridled passion for the concept is likely to see you through the 17-hour days (month after month) and the painful mistakes that are part and parcel of the start-up process.
Tom Peters
Forget loyalty. Or at least loyalty to one's corporation. Try loyalty to your Rolodex-your network-instead.
Tom Peters
OPPORTUNITY is not knocking. It is pounding on your door.
Tom Peters
Business, life itself, is damned hard work if you wanna be good at it. Actually, that's precisely wrong. Business ceases to be work when you're chasing a dream that has engorged you. (Work should be more fun than fun - Noel Coward.) And if the passion isn't there. then biotech and plumbing will be equal drags.
Tom Peters
If silly things were not done, intelligent things would never happen.
Tom Peters
Make an extensive table of project 'deliverables'. Label one column 'as requested'. Create another column labeled 'could be'. Make each 'could be' wild and woolly!
Tom Peters
I still read quite a few printed books, but if something is available in digital format I do not print it before I read it.
Tom Peters
There are few things that will take you further in life, than your ability to make a good presentation.
Tom Peters
It's this simple: You are a brand. You are in charge of your brand. There is no single path to success. And there is no one right way to create the brand called You. Except this: Start today. Or else.
Tom Peters
Design is so critical it should be on the agenda of every meeting in every single department.
