Harold S. Geneen
  • Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.

  • The best way to inspire people to superior performance is to convince them by everything you do and by your everyday attitude that you are wholeheartedly supporting them.

  • In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience. Take the experience first the cash will come later.

  • I think it is an immutable law in business that words are words, explanations are explanations, promises are promises - but only performance is reality.

  • In business, words are words explanations are explanations, promises are promises, but only performance is reality.
