I've been allowed to grow over the past twenty years. I've managed to avoid being trapped in one moment of my career and for that I'm very thankful.

Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money but I'm very picky.

There is no single development in either technology or management technique which by itself promises even one order-of-magnitude improvement within a decade in productivity in reliability in simplicity.

Product management really is the fusion between technology what engineers do - and the business side.

I managed Hewlett Packard through the worst technology downturn in 25 years the dotcom bust.

My younger sister had kids before I did and managed to earn a master's degree while raising them as a single parent. Now she's a brilliant second-grade teacher. I'm in awe of her ability to juggle everything and still be a great mother.

When you become a parent or a teacher you turn into a manager of this whole system. You become the person controlling the bubble of innocence around a child regulating it.

The first myth of management is that it exists. The second myth of management is that success equals skill.

Success depends almost entirely on how effectively you learn to manage the game's two ultimate adversaries: the course and yourself.

I'm not a defender of old or new football managers. I believe in good ones and bad ones those that achieve success and those that don't.
