General Charles Krulak's law: 'The closer you get to the front, the more power you have over the brand.' p 61 Linchpin by @thisissethgodin Click To Tweet“In recent conflicts, it’s the private in the field who is making decisions that change everything.”
“The challenge … is that it’s very hard to scale true believers… And, the second challenge is if you need to be a true believer to have empathy, it’s going to create brittleness and a lack of mobility and point of view. It’s better to have professionals… who understand how to bring empathy to the situation.”
“Going forward, what you need the rule to be is use your best judgment, treat people the way you want to be treated…. And then you need to spend time having your people develop empathy…. Empathy is about trying.”
