I come from an Italian family. One of the greatest and most profound expressions we would ever use in conversations or arguments was a slamming door. The slamming door was our punctuation mark. -- Mario Batali

I grew up in a family that despised displays of strong emotion, rage in particular. We stewed. We sulked.

Workplace relations is about getting the best out of people.
