I am always asking myself how I can improve the lives of my customers, my colleagues, my shareholders, my family and my friends.
The sign of a great player is how much he elevates his colleagues' performance.
It's not all about the figures. It's about how you play for the team, how you help your colleagues, how you work defensively.
I play to be happy in the first place and then to help my colleagues and my team the best way I can, with the best football.
It's one thing to be supported in your career and another thing for your peers to embrace you and say, 'We believe in you.'
One has to be available, very much available, and ready to protect the interests of his colleagues.
Explaining his success as Majority Leader:
I have campaigned only once in the elections, for Vinod Khanna in Gurdaspur, but that was not as a party member but because he is a colleague.
Having had the good fortune to serve beside her on both courts, I can attest that her opinions are always thoroughly considered, always carefully crafted and almost always correct (which is to say we sometimes disagree). That much is apparent for all to see. What only her colleagues know is that her suggestions improve the opinions the rest of us write, and that she is a source of collegiality and good judgment in all our work.
For many of us, work is the one place where we feel appreciated. The things that we long to experience at home - pride in our accomplishments, laughter and fun, relationships that aren't complex - we sometimes experience most often in the office. Bosses applaud us when we do a good job. Co-workers become a kind of family we feel we fit into.
I look for people who work to solve problems and help colleagues, I sack politicians.
For me, the team always comes first, and without the help of my colleagues, I am nothing.
I am delighted to have won so much support from my colleagues. The Conservative Party can come together - and under my leadership it will.
You really need to have a lot of empathy for the work you're doing and the people who you're ultimately trying to help, whether that's a business colleague, a boss, or, ultimately, the user of the software you're building.
To be honored by your peers is incredibly gratifying and I am so thankful to my colleagues across the league for this recognition. I'm also grateful to the talented and dedicated coaching staff I work with every day in Toronto. To be recognized with an award that bears Michael H. Goldberg's name is very special.
If I have the chance to be an important part for my colleagues or someone they can look at and say, 'He's doing good; he's motivated,' this is an objective I want to reach.
In my own career, I have always tried to treat my colleagues with respect and kindness, whoever they are, and am proud to have developed and mentored the careers of many excellent young scientists who will be tackling tomorrow's biological problems long after I have left the scene.
I cannot in good conscience ask my colleagues to expend precious time and energy defending or explaining my past. We need all hands on deck, fighting for the future.
It's much easier when you have your co-workers who are just, they're there in the moment. If you were out of the moment, you would feel odd.
I've said I will be CEO as long as my colleagues want me.
In the past, it was easier to believe in my own effectiveness. If I worked hard, with good colleagues and good ideas, we could make a difference. But now, I sincerely doubt that.
I am delighted by the support I have received from colleagues. It reflects the optimistic message that I've been putting forward.
A key ingredient to success, I learned, is relying on not only the kindness of strangers, but the kindness of colleagues.
It's a great honour to be recognised and appreciated by your fellow colleagues.
And don’t worry.” Bob, Carter’s best man and colleague, held up a notebook computer. “I’ve got it handled on this end. And I memorized the vows just in case he needs me to throw him a line.” “You’re a treasure, Bob.” She waited until she was out of earshot to laugh.
A bad word from a colleague can darken a whole day. We need encouragement a lot more than we admit, even to ourselves.
