Time for few more quotes from the books I read. Mostly from Infinite games and Rising strong. When we die nobody will be declared as winner.

You should explain why , not only what  As a leader, If your team in not following your command, dont blame them for not understanding the big picture, look into yourself and try to communicate better. If your boss isn’t making a decision in timely manner, examine how you can convey better.  Mindset: I divide world into learners and non learners.
