Dennis Bakke quotes:

Asking for advice is an act of humility.... The act alone says, "I need you." The decision maker and the adviser are pushed into a closer relationship.

What is the chief end of giving? To glorify God and enjoy Him forever.

Leaders who want to increase joy and success in the workplace must learn to take most of their personal satisfaction from the achievements of the people they lead, not from the power they exercise.

When leaders put control into the hands of their people, at all levels, they unlock incalculable potential.

A special workplace has many ingredients. The feeling that you are part of a team, a sense of community, the knowledge that what you do has real purpose - all these things help to make work fun. But by far the most important factor is whether people are able to use their individual talents and skills to do something useful, significant, and worthwhile.

If you treat people like adults they will act like adults, but if you treat them like children they will act like children.
