In the long run, whether you’re negotiating with vendors, or working in relationships with employees or customers you always get back what you are willing to give.

Love ‘em or otherwise, the Koch family has built an incredibly successful and financially rewarding business. “As CEO of Koch Industries, Inc., I am proud to work with principled people who help themselves by helping others improve their lives.

Koch. It’s an excellent book, well worth your time reading.
