“Failure is not an option but it is constantly a possibility. You manage your success by managing both the technical and the social risk.”

“Social context and NOT individual abilities drives performance, success or failure of a team or a project.”

“Expressing authentic appreciation doesn’t cost you anything and the outcomes are simply wonderful.”
