Philosophy quote:
if you fail little, take bigger steps
if you fail often, take smaller steps
KEEP taking generous steps

you can’t the measure effect an idea, only results, and those come from steps taken, not thoughts
“In healthy organizations, leaders take responsibility for the system and people take responsibility for their actions.
In unhealthy organizations, leaders blame the people, and the people blame the system”
..helping me take ownership of making this better for those around me. Helping give them their pre-requirements they need to succeed:
Another quote that help me do that is “Great leaders don't blame the tools they are given; they work to sharpen them.”
quoting Brene Brown:
“When the culture of an organization mandates that it is more important to protect the reputation of a system and those in power than it is to protect the basic human dignity of individuals or communities, you can be certain that shame is systemic, money drives ethics, and accountability is dead.”
Quoting Manager Tools:
“Culture is nothing more than the sum total of all the behaviours within an organization.
The single biggest determinants of that are leadership in all areas and the rewards system. People do things for one of two reasons - to seek pleasure or to avoid pain - the rewards system makes clear the pleasure/pain continuum.”
