All the old great companies were run by guys who knew what an animator meant, and guys who knew how to draw. All the companies today are run by executives.
Ralph Bakshi
And the inner dynamics of Hollywood are like politics. Say you give a script to a group of executives - they all sit around, afraid to voice an opinion, saying nothing, waiting to know what the consensus is. Just like focus groups, opinion polls or a cabinet.
Joe Eszterhas
Businessmen... were not born chief executives. They were often people first.
Richard Jefferson
But for me to have the opportunity to stand in front of a bunch of executives and present myself, I had to hustle in my own way. I can't tell you how frustrating it was that they didn't get that. No joke - I'd leave meetings crying all the time.
Kanye West
Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are, where they need to improve, and where they lack knowledge or information.
Peter Drucker
Chief executives, who themselves own few shares of their companies, have no more feeling for the average stockholder than they do for baboons in Africa.
T. Boone Pickens
Damn the great executives, the men of measured merriment, damn the men with careful smiles oh, damn their measured merriment.
Sinclair Lewis
Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.
Eric Sevareid
Executives owe it to the organization and to their fellow workers not to tolerate nonperforming individuals in important jobs.
Peter Drucker
Far too many executives have become more concerned with the "four P's" - pay, perks, power and prestige - rather than making profits for shareholders.
T. Boone Pickens
Good executives never put off until tomorrow what they can get someone else to do today.
John C. Maxwell
He testified that when you looked at it through the eyes of 'let's do it,' the costs were very small. They were less than they'd had to spend to host a convention of transportation executives. The cost was not that great.
Major Owens
Hollywood executives believe that money is both the be-all and end-all to the moviemaking process.
Leonard Maltin
Hollywood studio executives don't recognize the value of female performers as much as male performers.
Anna Faris
I don't know when network executives will get out of the Dark Ages.
Connie Chung
I don't understand executives that pit women against each other, the fact that they brought in 'Body of Proof,' Dana Delaney is a friend of mine, and the two of us were just rolling our eyes, it's like, of course, you finally have two great female leads and you're going to put us on against each other.
Julianna Margulies
I got a good handshake. A lot of executives tell me I have the best handshake in Hollywood.
Marlee Matlin
I have learned to respect ideas, wherever they come from. Often they come from clients. Account executives often have big creative ideas, regardless of what some writers think.
Leo Burnett
I have spoken to a whole group of millionaires, head executives at Microsoft. Boy did I chew those guys out.
Jack LaLanne
I hope there will be some good news and some good profits, and people will realize we have a lot of outstanding executives, and a lot of companies that are doing a good job, and those are good companies to invest in.
