  3. Be forthright, honest, and direct with every person and in every circumstance.
  4. Improve effective use of technology to gain efficiency.
  5. Cherish your time and the time of others – it is not renewable.
  6. Identify the critical problems that need solution for the organization to succeed.
  7. Describe complex issues and problems simply so every person can understand.
  8. Never stop learning – depth and breadth of knowledge are equally important.
  9. Encourage constructive criticism.
  10. Surround yourself with great people and delegate to them full authority and responsibility.
  11. Make ethical standards more important than legal requirements.
  12. Strive for team-based wins, not individual wins.

  14. Incorporate measures and metrics everywhere.
  15. Identify and concentrate on core functions.
