What happens during recessions, is you have less windfalls just helping you cover mistakes. You have to be more careful about not making mistakes.
Reid Hoffman
The key thing is to invest in the future, and what that means is - when you're deploying technology or you're a technology business - is to make sure that you're keeping on the innovation cycle, where you're both creating and adopting the new business practices and the new techniques in order to drive your business the right way.
Reid Hoffman
In crisis times, it's actually not more difficult to motivate your staff, because everyone gets much more focused on how they control their own economic destiny.
Reid Hoffman
If performance management were a movie, it will become less 'Gladiator' and more 'Moneyball.'
Reid Hoffman
