I've got better things to do than to find my individuality in that particular area. But if it's important to me, I've got to seek my own path.

MBA programs are underwritten by large companies and they succeed at producing future employees of large companies. In that regard, they are doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing.

I also believe that at a critical point (more than six people?), that collective wisdom turns into group think.

I think small groups have more collective wisdom than an individual.

Success doesn’t always look like what we think it looks like.

The disruption caused by globalization and technology (what Tom Friedman calls hyperconnectedness) will be around for the rest of our professional lives.

For example, I wear clothes I buy at trendy shops because I don't care much about clothing. If someone wants to create a trend around clothing, I'll happily and blindly follow.

There are not enough forums where institutions invite their workers to share their failures in a constructive way so the organization can move forward.

In companies, there are three activities that should be labeled better. First there is the "CORE" which is the thing the company does that its customers pay it to do.

However, there's nothing more inspiring than a company that does solve problems and those problems are captured as part of a larger story.

I believe in labeling things.

There's no backward and no forward, no day other than this. You fill your cart as you go, and that's that.

I’ll never speak to God again.

I didn't know that love is not about what we do, but who we are, convincing others of our love for them...and about who loves us.

We girls, we're tough, darling. Soft on the outside but, deep down, we're tough.

There is no bad weather, just soft runners.

Ambition it is the last infirmity of noble minds.

I believe that transatlantic relations are very important and that President Bush's visit to Brussels, in a few days, will have a major impact on that.

Love is an interesting thing.

To end up with a canvas that is no less beautiful than the empty canvas is to begin with.

I think if I had just slowed down a little bit it could have a little easier. I multiplied how difficult it needed to be instead of just saying, fair enough. You don't have to make it hard.
