I could go insane if I obsessed over every little detail of all of my companies. My management philosophy is to pay attention to the vital few and ignore the trivial many.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I hate management. I hate management. I just do.
Great companies have to manage the cadence of what they do.
What any manager will try to bring to a company first and foremost is an energy and commitment to the business. To try and really roll your sleeves up.
Most of my ideas are based on the latest research on productivity, performance and mental mastery - that's why so many iconic companies bring me in to help them grow and win.
My management style is there is no such thing as non-important people in the company.
In every business, in every industry, management does matter.
So, for me, working with larger companies has often been very satisfying, precisely because of the ability of bringing critical mass to bear on a given effort.
I like a good cliche because it reminds you that much of management practice boils down to things you need to do but often forget or fail to do often enough.
I learned that focus is key. Not just in your running a company, but in your personal life as well.
I never learned management. I never went to business school. I'm an artist. I happened to have really clear ideas of what I thought my business should be.
