Consultancies should learn from the NFL

Here are two quotes from people in the NFL, that also ring true in my neck of the woods...

You can be your own person, treat people with respect, be very demanding but demanding in a way that doesn't trample on people. And you don't have to give up your faith to win in the NFL.
-- Cam Cameron, sharing his opinions about Tony Dungy's book Quiet Strength

"If we don't do something about rookie salaries pretty soon, the salary cap will be meaningless. [Indianapolis defensive end] Dwight Freeney got $30 million in guarantees after leading the league in sacks over the past five years. [Cleveland rookie tackle] Joe Thomas got $23 million in guarantees for breathing.''
-- Anonymous, but wise, NFL general manager.
