I always want to have more dancers in my company.
Vision is dandy, but sustainable company excellence comes from a huge stable of able managers.
I made a lot of money, but you can dangerously let it lead you on. It depends what company you keep.
SAP is a great company, but they have their work cut out for them if they want to compete in databases.
I'm a walking advertisement for PBS and for the Discovery Channel. All of my DVR settings are pretty much set to record anything that's on the Discovery Channel. I'm a big fan of 'MythBusters' and 'Deadliest Catch,' and I'm constantly watching 'Moyers & Company' and the 'NewsHour' and 'Antiques Roadshow.'
I'm a CEO of a public company. You have to show decorum.
I'm privileged and grateful to lead The Walt Disney Company and our talented, dedicated team at this exciting time.
Dell's a company that has changed the IT landscape in making PCs and servers more affordable. There's enormous opportunities to make IT more accessible to tens of millions of companies, kind of democratizing the ability for companies to gain access to IT.
Microsoft's an important partner for Dell, an important company in the industry.

Apple Computer would not have reached its current peak of success if it had feared to roll the dice and launch products that didn't always hit the mark.

In some environments, roles shift and change each period depending on what the company's needs are. On the other hand, many functional roles can become very repetitive if you perform similar tasks over and over again.
We really believe that Walt Disney is a very able company with great depth and a great set of franchises.

My thoughts are my company; I can bring them together, select them, detain them, dismiss them.
I think reconceptualizing Microsoft as a devices and services company is absolutely what our vision is all about. Office 365 and Azure on the services side are representative of it.
I had a dialect coach from the Royal Shakespeare Company who was from Sheffield.
I have always been an advocate and was, in my last job at M&S, a supporter of the Al Gore dictum that a sustainable business can be a profitable business. We were the first sizeable company in the U.K. to prove that was the case.
Diesel is the only example of a casualwear or sportswear company that became a luxury brand.
Where minds differ and opinions swerve there is scant a friend in that company.
