You like strategy. I like execution. You like big gestures. I like small gestures. You worry about disruption. I worry about the next five minutes. You like systems. I like people. You like to “tell it like it is.” I like kindness. ...
You like “It’s your job.” I like “Thanks for the extra effort.” You like to “get down to business.” I like to see how folks are doing. You like your office. I like the shop floor. You like people “who get to the point.” I like people who think before they open their mouth.
You think sustainability is an issue. I think sustainability is THE issue. You think “we gotta take more cost out.” I think “we gotta add more value.” You want to “hammer the competition.” I want us all to succeed by doing great work.
You think “we pay our taxes.” I think our responsibility to the community is enormous—taxes are but a first step. You think “we need to work on the gender issue.” I think we must commit to 50-50 boards and exec teams within 36 months.
