Accepting Blame When It's Not Really Due

Clout Is Something Some Seem To Have-until They Try Exercising It.

Some Of The Biggest Bores I've Ever Known Are Men Who Have Been Highly Successful In Business, Particularly Self-made Heads Of Big Companies. Before The First Olive Has Settled Into The First Martini, They Pour The Stories Of Their Lives Into The Nearest And Sometimes The Remotest Ears Capturable.... These Men Have Indeed Paid The Price Of Success. To Rise To The Top Of A Big Company Often Takes A Totality Of Effort, Concentration And Dedication. Others, Too, Have To Pay Part Of The Price. Wife And Children Are Out Of Mind Even When In Sight.

Hopeless Cases: Executives Who Assert Themselves By Saying No When They Should Say Yes.

If You Want Understanding Try Giving Some.

Thinkers Perish, Thoughts Don't.
