Quotable Quotes: Bob Sutton
by Miki SaxonBob Sutton is Professor of Management Science and Engineering at Stanford and a Professor of Organizational Behavior, by courtesy, at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, but he is best known to the majority of people as the author of The No Asshole Rule.
He is also a genuinely nice guy, has a prominent email link on his blog and actually responds when you write him.
The blog is called Work Matters and it’s one of those ‘if you read nothing else…’ things. In the left column Bob has listed “15 things I believe” and my favorites form today’s quotes along with links for context.
Which ones would you choose?
Getting a little power can turn you into an insensitive self-centered jerk.
The best test of a person’s character is how he or she treats those with less power.
