"The faster moving the economy becomes, the more economically valuable become the essentially human traits of the people in the business; their talent, knowledge and creativity. And the more important become issues of honesty, trust, values, purpose, leadership, culture, which turn out to be the only source of sustainable competitive advantage. All of these things are about real dollars. This is what it takes to survive and thrive in today's business world."
