"Success for Managers means: I want to be in healthy relationships. I want a real connection with people I spend so much time with."
- Stan Slap
"Let’s get right on top of the bottom line: You must live your personal values at work."
"Any expert will tell you that if you want emotionally committed relationships then people must be allowed to be true to who they are."
"When you’re not on your own agenda, you’re prey to the agenda of others."
"Leadership creates performance in people because it impacts willingness; it’s a matter of modeling, inspiring, and reinforcing."
"Management controls performance in people because it impacts skills; it’s a matter of monitoring, analyzing and directing."
"To integrate one’s experiences around a coherent and enduring sense of self lies at the core of creating a user’s guide to life."
"Leaders are people who know exactly who they are. They know exactly where they want to go. They’re hell-bent on getting there."
"Leaders make a lot of mistakes but they admit those mistakes to themselves and change because of them."
"Managers know what they want most: to be allowed to achieve success by leveraging who they are, not by compromising it."
