“Questions are far more effective than defensive statements. They do not imply agreement, but they do convey interest and a desire to understand and facilitate an environment for peak performance, a central thread of effective leadership....

Mind in its psychological aspect can come full power, but you are not to be a traffic policeman inside your own head.”
