“One of the most common mistakes new leaders make—and I just can’t for the life of me understand this one—is to ignore the history of the organization they just took over, or even to disrespect it. That, to me, is the mark of a weak leader—and one who’s probably not going to last very long.” –Bo Schembechler
“Let me be as clear as I can be about this: When you become the leader, do not start your reign by dismantling or ignoring the contributions of those who cam before. The history of your organization is one of your greatest strengths, and if you’re new to the organization, it’s your job to learn it, to respect it and to teach it to the people coming up in your company.” –Bo Schembechler
