“If you keep nonproductive people, the productive ones become frustrated and leave. If you remove the people who don’t add value, then the whole team gets better. It’s just like trimming trees: If you don’t cut the deadwood, eventually the whole tree falls.

For the modern, the cardinal problem is how to conform reality to the wishes of man, and the solution is a technique.”
