Volodya Stoyanov Quotes & Sayings

Two enterprises that to an outsider appear to be in an identical line of business may well end up defining their key activities quite differently.

The rest has to be determined by the people within looking at the enterprise and at their own jobs, values, and goals. — Peter F. Drucker
