Manage the top line: your strategy, your people, and your products, and the bottom line will follow.

Find people who are competent and really bright, but more importantly, people who care exactly about the same things you care about.

You cannot mandate productivity, you must provide the tools to let people become their best.

Kick-start your brain. New ideas come from watching something, talking to people, experimenting, asking questions and getting out of the office!

Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.

Companies must have a noble cause, and it's the leaders job to transform that noble cause into such an inspiring vision, that it will attract the most talented people in the world to want to join it.
