More on Persuasion
“Non-co-operators will make a serious mistake if they seek to convert people to their creed by violence.”
“Leadership isn't just legislation, that it's a matter of persuading people and giving them confidence, and bringing them together and setting a tone.”
“Arguments are to be avoided: they are always vulgar and often convincing.”
More on Communication
“On the one hand, we may tell the truth, regardless of consequences, and on the other hand we may mellow it and sophisticate it to make it humane and tolerable.”
“Our approach is to think of companies not as businesses but as collections of people. We [Apple]want to qualitatively change the way people work. We don't just want to help them do word processing faster or add numbers faster. We want to change the way they can communicate with one another. We're seeing less paper flying around and more quality of communication.”
“Good leaders must communicate vision clearly, creatively, and continually. However, the vision doesn't come alive until the leader models it.”
