“The one thing I have learned as a CEO is that leadership at various levels is vastly different. When I was leading a function or a business, there were certain demands and requirements to be a leader. As you move up the organization, the requirements for leading that organization don't grow vertically; they grow exponentially.” DifferentMovingCertainGrowsLevelsLeaderOne ThingDemandOrganizationFunctionVariousI Have LearnedRequirementsCeo Author:Indra Nooyi
“Personally, I’ve gotten so that I now use a kind of two-track analysis. First, what are the factors that really govern the interests involved, rationally considered? And second, what are the subconscious influences where the brain at a subconscious level is automatically conclusions in various ways — which, by and large, are useful — but which often malfunction? One approach is rationality… And the other is to evaluate the psychological factors that cause subconscious conclusions — many of which are wrong.” WayFirstsKindTwoUseCausesInterestLevelsBrainInfluenceInvolvedApproachTrackVariousPsychologicalFactorsConclusionAnalysisSubconsciousRationalityEvaluateMalfunction Author:Charlie Munger

“I do not mean to impugn the social justice and social expediency of the redistribution of incomes aimed at by N.I.R.A. and by the various schemes for agricultural restriction. The latter, in particular, I should strongly support in principle. But too much emphasis on the remedial value of a higher price-level as an object in itself may lead to serious misapprehension as to the part which prices can play in the technique of recovery. The stimulation of output by increasing aggregate purchasing power is the right way to get prices up; and not the other way round.” WayShouldMayMeanPlayValuesSocialJusticeLevelsPrinciplesSupportToo MuchObjectsParticularSeriousHigherSocial JusticeRoundsInvestingVariousTechniqueIncomeRecoveryLatterSchemesRight WayEmphasisRestrictionOutputStimulationPurchasingExpediencyPurchasing Power Author:John Maynard Keynes
“Kaplan can't understand trivialities. The triviality here is that nobody except the ultra right-wing jingoists like Kaplan are comparing atrocities by various countries. What honest people are saying seems to be incomprehensible: that we should keep to the elementary moral level of the gospels. We should pay attention to our own crimes and stop committing them. This would be true even if we were killing one person, OK?

“A second possible approach to general systems theory is through the arrangement of theoretical systems and constructs in a hierarchy of complexity, roughly corresponding to the complexity of the "individuals" of the various empirical fields... leading towards a "system of systems."
