“Managers know what they want most: to be allowed to achieve success by leveraging who they are, not by compromising it.”

“Success is most often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable.”

“The personal values managers reported being the most under pressure to compromise to do their jobs successfully: 1. Family 2. Integrity.”

“Very few who manage a big league club are successful, fewer still are the ones who experience success over an extended period of time, but to achieve a level of success so extraordinary that it is given a category all it’s own—“The Big Red Machine”—places Sparky [Anderson] in one of the most exclusive and elite clubs in baseball history.”

“What companies want most from their managers is what they most stop their managers from giving. What managers want most from their jobs is what they most stop themselves from getting.”

“You may not need to get comfortable with achievements, success is the lifestyle for everyone who wants to be happy.”
