- JACK WELCH - An organisation's ability to learn, and translate that learning into action rapidly, is the ultimate competitive advantage.

- PETER DRUCKER - Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are, where they need to improve, and where they lack knowledge of information.
