“We admire people who work hard, who are objective and thorough. We detest office politicians, toadies, bullies and pompous asses. We abhor ruthlessness. The way up our ladder is open to everybody. In promoting people to do jobs, we are influenced as much by their character as anything else.” David Ogilvy
