Dee Hock quotes
" All of a sudden, just within the last three decades with the emergence of microtechnology, we have on the order of a thousand times better algorithms, five hundred thousand times more computing power per individual, and five hundred million times more mobility of information. "

Dee Hock
" An illustration I use to get people to understand it is this: I'll ask major corporate audiences: Why don't you just take all your traditional beliefs about organizations, and apply them to the neurons in your brain? "

Dee Hock
" An organization, no matter how well designed, is only as good as the people who live and work in it. "

Dee Hock
" As I like to say, the entire collective memory of the species - that means all known and recorded information - is going to be just a few keystrokes away in a matter of years. "

Dee Hock
" Every mind is a room packed with archaic furniture. "

Dee Hock
" Experience is easy to provide and quickly put to good use by people with all the other qualities. "

Dee Hock
" I call it this new age chaordic because it will be immensely complex and chaotic, but also requires cohesion and coherence, or order. "

Dee Hock
" I often tell people that every mind is like a room in an old house, stuffed with very old furniture. Take any space in your mind and empty it of your old conceptions and new ones will rush in, good or bad. So change is more a getting rid of rather than an adding to or an acquiring. "

Dee Hock
" If you don't understand that you work for your mislabeled 'subordinates,' then you know nothing of leadership. You know only tyranny. "

Dee Hock
" If you go back to the first single-cell form of life, it clearly possessed the capacity to receive, to utilize, to store, to transform, and to transmit information. "

Dee Hock
" If you look to lead, invest at least 40% of your time managing yourself - your ethics, character, principles, purpose, motivation, and conduct. Invest at least 30% managing those with authority over you, and 15% managing your peers. "

Dee Hock
" If you're in such a position of power and your ego is such that this is not possible, then its essential to have a small cadre of very bright, committed people who are questioning, exploring and understanding these emerging concepts. "

Dee Hock
" In the book I write extensively about the necessity of for all people to lead themselves, then lead their superiors, then lead their peers, then hire, teach and motivate their people to do the same, because they are the ones who will have the minute-to-minute knowledge of what's happening. "

Dee Hock
" It is essential to employ, trust, and reward those whose perspective, ability, and judgment are radically different from yours. It is also rare, for it requires uncommon humility, tolerance, and wisdom. "

Dee Hock
" It won't do away with hierarchy totally, but the principal leader will be the person who most exemplifies the kind of organization and behavior required who is best able to create the conditions such organizations require. "
