I Want To Become A Student. I

I Think That My Leadership Style Is To Get People To Fear Staying In Place, To Fear Not Changing.

If Ceo Compensation Was Performance-driven, Which I Believe It Was In Ibm's Case, Nobody Would Ever Argue. If The Shareholders Didn't Make Billions And Billions Of Dollars, I Wouldn't Make Millions Of Dollars. My Salary Was The Same For 10 Years. It Was All Performance-based.

You Don't Get Points For Predicting Rain. You Get Points For Building Arks.

I Don't Want To Use The Word Reorganization. Reorganization To Me Is Shuffling Boxes, Moving Boxes Around. Transformation Means That You're Really Fundamentally Changing The Way The Organization Thinks, The Way It Responds, The Way It Leads. It's A Lot More Than Just Playing With Boxes.

I Came To See, In My Time At Ibm, That Culture Isn't Just One Aspect Of The Game; It Is The Game.
