"Almost all quality improvement comes via simplification of design, manufacturing... layout, processes, and procedures."

"Communication is everyone's panacea for everything."

"Stop being conned by the old mantra that says, 'Leaders are cool, managers are dweebs.' Instead, follow the Peters Principle: Leaders are cool. Managers are cool too!"
