Marcus Buckingham said this quote

There has to be a way to redirect employee's driving ambition and to channel it more productively. There is. Create heroes in every role. Make every role, performed at excellence, a respected profession.

~ Marcus Buckingham

Talent is the multiplier. The more energy and attention you invest in it, the greater the yield. The time you spend with your best is, quite simply, your most productive time.

~ Marcus Buckingham

Remember the Golden Rule? Treat people as you would like to be treated. The best managers break the Golden Rule every day. They would say don't treat people as you would like to be treated. This presupposes that everyone breathes the same psychological oxygen as you. For example, if you are competitive, everyone must be similarly competitive. If you like to be praised in public, everyone else must, too. Everyone must share your hatred of micromanagement.

~ Marcus Buckingham

...every time you make a rule you take away a choice and choice, with all of its illuminating repercussions, is the fuel for learning.
