some bosses are so greedy (for themselves only) they forget underlings are not thirteenth-century peasants who can be satisfied with a glass of mead and three festivals a year.
Helen Gurley Brown

I've said consistently that no employer ever really accepts a union. They tolerate the unions. The very minute they can get a pool of unemployment they'll challenge the unions and try to get back what they call managements prerogatives, meaning hire, fire, pay what you want.
Jimmy Hoffa

I am still very proud of that concert. In America, the (musicians') connection with the conductor is as with management - it becomes political. You cannot conduct properly in this environment. I hate this enemy situation between management and orchestra members.

Most of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to get their work done.
Peter Drucker
Image
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
Larry Page
Image
A manager's task is to make the strengths of people effective and their weakness irrelevant - and that applies fully as much to the manager's boss as it applies to the manager's subordinates.
Peter Drucker
Image
In large organizations the dilution of information as it passes up and down the hierarchy, and horizontally across departments, can undermine the effort to focus on common goals.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

The general systems of money management [today] require people to pretend to do something they can't do and like something they don't. It's a terrible way to spend your life, but it's very well paid.
Charlie Munger
Image
Most of the stress people experience comes from inappropriately managed commitments they make or accept.
David Allen
Image
Without institution there is no management. But without management there is no institution.
Peter Drucker
Image
Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success
Stephen Covey
Image
Those who failed to oppose me, who readily agreed with me, accepted all my views, and yielded easily to my opinions, were those who did me the most injury, and were my worst enemies, because, by surrendering to me so easily, they encouraged me to go too far... I was then too powerful for any man, except myself, to injure me.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Image
The mistakes that people will make are of much less importance than the mistake that management makes if it tells them exactly what to do.
William L. McKnight
Image
Those who make the worst use of their time are the first to complain of its shortness.
Jean de la Bruyere
Image
I have to tell it again and again: I have no doctrine. I only point out something. I point out reality, I point out something in reality which has not or too little been seen. I take him who listens to me at his hand and lead him to the window. I push open the window and point outside. I have no doctrine, I carry on a dialogue.
Martin Buber
Image
One way to become enthusiastic is to look for the plus sign. To make progress in any difficult situation, you have to start with what's right about it and build on that
Norman Vincent Peale
Image
Relationship and connectedness are the pre-condition for change. Every meeting, every process, every training program has to get people connected first. Otherwise the content falls on deaf ears. So small groups are an essential building block to any future you want to create.
Peter Block

When you get into the entertainment business, you have to grow up a lot faster, because you're working nine and a half hours a day. I've learned time management at 14-years-old, and I've learned how to do all these different things that some people don't learn until they're in their 20s and 30s.

People often ask why I left CNN.....I didn’t like management. I liked my colleagues in the news gathering but the corporate culture that seized management when AOL came in (Steve Case and Gerry Levin) was disgusting.
Greta Van Susteren

The executive art is nine-tenths inducing those who have authority to use it in taking pertinent action
Chester Barnard

I have always admired the Linking Pin theory of management specialist Rensis Likert. It says that in every organization there are leaders who link the lower level to the upper level. What makes somebody an effective link as a leader is that he conveys down everything that above wants and he conveys up everything that below needs.
Colin Powell
Image
Management is clearly different from leadership. Leadership is primarily a high-powered, right-brain activity. It's more of an art it's based on a philosophy. You have to ask the ultimate questions of life when you're dealing with personal leadership issues.
Stephen Covey
Image
Let us ask our suppliers to come and help us to solve our problems.
W. Edwards Deming

We should be guided by theory, not by numbers.
