Quote of the Day - Compromise

When working with other people and dynamic situations and relationships and deals, a person, especially a leader, must compromise.
Finding the common ground between teams. Merging different approaches to the same problem. Bridging personalities with people who might not get along.
Reaching agreements in courses of action. All of these require compromise. And in many cases, a failure to compromise is a failure to succeed.
But those are external compromises, with other people, other humans that have their own personalities and methods and issues. And compromise is needed to unify. So tho work with them, compromise is a must.
