Instead they ask, "What would be needed to make this embryonic, half-baked, foolish idea into something that makes sense, that is an opportunity for us?"” IdeasWould BeAsksOpportunityBornHalfCompanyBabyFoolNeededPromiseFoolishMake SenseFulfillmentDamnExecutivesInnovativeImmature Author:Peter Drucker
“Our government should work for us, not against us. It should help us, not hurt us.
