Management is, above all, a practice where art, science, and craft meet.

    归根结底，管理是一种汇合了艺术、科学和手艺的实践。

    ——亨利•明茨伯格（Henry Mintzberg，管理学者）

    如果你选对了人，给了他们施展的机会，以酬劳作为载体，就几乎不用管理他们了。

    If you pick the right people and give them the opportunity to spread their wings, and put compensation as a carrier behind it, you almost don't have to manage them.

    ——杰克•韦尔奇（Jack Welch，通用电气前首席执行官）

    Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authority, and don't interfere as long as the policy you've decided upon is being carried out.

    要让你的周围都是你能找到的最优秀的人；授予他们权力；只要你制定的政策正在实施，就不要干预。

    ——罗纳德•里根（Ronald Reagan，已故美国总统）

    Management by objectives works if you first think through your objectives. Ninety percent of the time you haven't.

    如果你先想透了你的目标，目标管理是可行的。但十有八九你没有想透。

    ——彼得•德鲁克（Peter Drucker，已故管理学大师）

    …reaching the summit had nothing to do with where you arrived and everything to do with how you got there. Likewise with the business: The point was not to focus on making money; focus on doing things right, and the profits would come.

    ……登顶的地点并不重要，重要的是你是如何登顶的。做生意也是如此：不能只想着赚钱；只要一心一意地把事情做好，利润自然会有的。

    ——伊冯•乔伊纳德（Yvon Chouinard，美国“绿色”企业家）

    A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the tongue, you may never get over.

    行有疏失，容易补救；言有疏失，不可挽回。

    ——本杰明•富兰克林（Benjamin Franklin，美国开国元勋）

    When you do something truly revolutionary, most competitors will never copy it –they won’t understand it.

    如果你做的事是真正革命性的，大多数竞争对手就永远也模仿不了。他们甚至都理解不了。

    ——司各特•库克（James Cook， 财捷公司创始人）
