Motivational Quotes

Business

Executives are like joggers. If you stop a jogger, he goes on running on the spot. If you drag an executive away from his business, he goes on running on the spot, pawing the ground, talking business. He never stops hurtling onwards, making decisions and executing them.
- Baudrillard, Jean

Collins, Nathan

If you can't pay for a thing, don't buy it. If you can't get paid for it, don't sell it. Do this, and you will have calm and drowsy nights, with all of the good business you have now and none of the bad. If you have time, don't wait for time.
Franklin, Benjamin

Baudrillard, Jean

10.
Few great men could pass personal.
Goodman, Paul

11.
HereÆs my theory about meetings and life; the three things you canÆt fake are erections, competence and creativity. ThatÆs why meetings become toxic they put uncreative people in a situation in which they have to be something they can never be. And the more effort they put into concealing their inabilities, the more toxic the meeting becomes. One of the most common creativity-faking tactics is when someone puts their hands in prayer position and conceals their mouth while they nod at you and say,'Mmmmmm. Interesting.'If pressed, theyÆll add,'IÆll have to get back to you on that.'Then they donÆt say anything else.
Douglas Coupland

12.

Erhard, Ludwig

13.
What's good for the country is good for General Motors, and vice versa.
Wilson, Charles E.

14.
So much for industry, my friends, and attention to one's own business; but to these we must add frugality if we would make our industry more certainly successful. A man may, if he knows not how to save as he gets, keep his nose all his life to the grindstone, and die not worth a grout at last.
Franklin, Benjamin

15.
You can employ men and hire hands to work for you, but you must win their hearts to have them work with you.
Riorio

16.
We let folks know we're interested in them and that they're vital to us. cause they are.
Walton, Sam

17.
The simple opposition between the people and big business has disappeared because the people themselves have become so deeply involved in big business.
Lippmann, Walter

18.
I believe Mrs. Thatcher's emphasis on enterprise was right.
Blair, Tony

19.
Nobody ever lost money taking a profit.
Baruch, Bernard M.

20.
The commercial class has always mistrusted verbal brilliancy and wit, deeming such qualities, perhaps with some justice, frivolous and unprofitable.
Nevill, Dorothy

21.
If your advertising goes unnoticed, everything else is academic!
Bernbach, William

22.
Blessed is he who talks in circles, for he shall become a big wheel.
Dane, Frank

23.
Among the worries of today's business executives is the large number of unemployed still on the payroll.

24.
Our planning system was dynamite when we first put it in. The thinking was fresh; the form mattered little. It was idea oriented. We then hired a head of planning, and he hired two vice presidents, and then he hired a planner; and the books got thicker, and the printing more sophisticated, and the covers got harder, and the drawings got better.
Welch, John

25.
Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
Churchill, Winston

26.
Get the best people and train them well.
Merrill, Charles

27.

Getty, J. Paul

In our factory, we make lipstick. In our advertising, we sell hope.
Revson, Charles

31.
Never write an advertisement which you wouldn't want your own family to read. You wouldn't tell lies to your own wife. Don't tell them to mine. Do as you would be done by. If you tell lies about a product, you will be found out -- either by the Government, which will prosecute you, or by the consumer, who will punish you by not buying your product a second time. Good products can be sold by honest advertising. If you don't think the product is good, you have no business to be advertising it.
Ogilvy, David

32.
No sale is really complete until the product is worn out, and the customer is satisfied.
Bean, L.L.

33.
People will go right on preferring to do business with friends.

34.

Galvin, Robert

37.
I'm not a driven businessman, but a driven artist. I never think about money. Beautiful things make money.
Beene, Geoffrey

38.
You can close more business in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you.
Carnegie, Dale

39.
There's a lot more business out there in small town America than I ever dreamed of.
Walton, Sam

40.
Corporation. An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility.
Bierce, Ambrose

41.
The great business of life is to be, to do, to do without and to depart.
Morley, John

42.
It's the economy, stupid.
Clinton, Bill

43.
It is almost as difficult to keep a first class person in a fourth class job, as it is to keep a fourth class person in a first class job.
Dunn, Paul H.

44.
Letting your customers set your standards is a dangerous game, because the race to the bottom is pretty easy to win. Setting your own standards--and living up to them--is a better way to profit. Not to mention a better way to make your day worth all the effort you put into it.
Seth Godin

45.
If you did not look after today's business then you might as well forget about tomorrow.
Mophatlane, Isaac

46.
Most men are individuals no longer so far as their business, its activities, or its moralities are concerned. They are not units but fractions.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

47.
You don't want to get the same kind of advice from everyone on your board.
Cardenas, Ruben

48.
In business, words are words; explanations are explanations, promises are promises, but only performance is reality.
Geneen, Harold S.

49.
The first thing the secretary types is the boss.

50.

Basinger, Kim
