'“Mindless habitual behavior is the enemy of innovation.”. Rosabeth Moss Kanter. “Houston, we have a problem!”.

'If I had to pick a side, I would have chosen hers. But picking sides was entirely beside the point. The other guy’s heels were dug in deeper than skis sunk in a tree well of deep powder. No amount of convincing was going to change his mind. “ It’s time to let it go. ” I offered. “This battle is not worth winning. ” “But I’m right, she insisted.” That’s entirely possible.
