"Outstanding leaders go out of the way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it's amazing what they can accomplish. There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else" -Sam Walton
