"A business should be run like an aquarium, where everybody can see what's going on -- what's going in, what's moving around, what's coming out. That's the only way to make sure people understand what you're doing, and why, and have some input into deciding where you are going. Then, when the unexpected happens, they know how to react and react quickly."

- Jack Stack, The Great Game of Business.
