Robert Frost
There was accepted wisdom in the old purchase manager saying "No one ever lost their job because they bought IBM."
And then many of those purchase managers looked around and saw viable alternatives.
Brands "less traveled" then, many of which are now bigger than IBM.
The tried and the true or new ways? Which path will you walk?

A business quote from Robert Frost? Who would have guessed?
ReplyDeleteThis blog has included quotes from a very diverse set of individuals, many of which have nothing to do with business.
But what they say typically relates well to business matters which just goes to show, business wisdom is where you find it.
Maybe such far afield thinking is what we need now more than ever.
Cheryl, when I started this blog back in September I assumed I would only use quotes from recognized business leaders; however two things quickly became apparent.
ReplyDeleteThe number of meaningful things said by business people appears to me to be very limited, but of greater importance, the things said by others that could and should be applied to business, is endless.
Thinking about it, that's no surprise. Many of these quotes apply to life and business is a part of all our lives one way or the other.
And yes I think much of the thinking we see here, in particular the reaction from people like you, is what we need now.
Thanks for the comment.
