Let’s share favorite quotations that are somehow relevant to business. I frequently include them in letters, e-mails, proposals, and book reviews. They may not always provide a head-snapping revelation but do add some “seasoning” to the prose.

Welcome to the employee engagement network. I am so pleased you joined us and I look forward to your contribution to the network and I trust you will get what you need by being here.

Not an easy task but when done well it transforms organizations into communities, those communities have conversations, and contributions flow from the community and organization.

ALL of us know more than ANY of us. And it is dangerous to know The Answer, since there are generally LOTS of possibilities for workplace improvements.

Ask people what they want to achieve, then help them achieve it.
