“Nice is only good when it’s coupled with a rational perspective and the ability to make difficult choices. It’s not helpful to foster an everyone-gets-a-trophy mentality; you have to earn the honors to get the honors.” --Michael Fertik
“How to Do Better Than Nice: Communicating directly and engaging in productive conflict, while difficult, simply makes for better performance–at both the individual level and the business one.”
