Andrew S. Grove (Founder, former Chairman and CEO of Intel) has a lot of great insight about both day-to-day management as well as how to lead through the inflection points that every company faces.

Quote: Bad companies are destroyed by crisis. Good companies survive them. Great companies are improved by them. Andrew S. Grove.
