“Another way of building trust is to authentically delegate. Don't assign someone work and then constantly monitor their progress and ignore their ideas.”
Scott Sonenshein, Joy at Work: Organizing Your Professional Life

“There are notable differences between the frugal and the cheap. Frugal people take pleasure in saving and cheap people feel pained by spending.”
Scott Sonenshein, Stretch: Unlock the Power of Less - and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined

“almost anything—tangible and intangible—has potential as a resource, but that to become anything valuable requires action. This helps us realize that resources don’t come from outside us—they’re not things we go out and get but rather things we create and shape.”
Scott Sonenshein, Stretch: Unlock the Power of Less - and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined
