If it's one thing we do really well as a company, it's that we take big change slowly and deliberately and bring the community along with us.

I think it's absolutely essential that the people that work for a company need to feel that they're part of something bigger - that it's not just a job.

Businesses are not just local or even national anymore - good ideas are immediately global. So the market opportunities are much larger than we've ever imagined or seen.

I think good companies can navigate being public and doing the right things for their customers.

Great companies in the way they work, start with great leaders.

That said, there is a tendency to help the large industrial conglomerate more quickly than the small company you have never heard of. That is something in the culture we are trying to change.

We have accepted there is a big role for government to create a framework where businesses can grow in all parts of the country.

I think that companies always become complacent, over time. Or most companies, that is.

Big businesses aren't the only ones in the economic ecosystem. Nobody should fall behind because of an unfair structure.

A lot of companies are global.
