Jack Welch, Former CEO of General Electric
“Employee engagement first. It goes without saying that no company, small or large, can win over the long run without energized employees who believe in the mission and understand how to achieve it. That's why you need to take the measure of employee engagement....”
“People want to be part of something larger than themselves. They want to be part of something they’re really proud of, that they’ll fight for, sacrifice for, that they trust.”
Howard Schultz, Chairman of Starbucks

“If the employees come first, then they're happy, ... A motivated employee treats the customer well. The customer is happy so they keep coming back, which pleases the shareholders. It's not one of the enduring Green mysteries of all time, it is just the way it works.”
Herbert D. Kelleher, CEO of Southwest Airlines
“The people who are doing the work are the moving force behind the Macintosh. My job is to create a space for them…”
Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple
