The quote was on an IBM calendar in the Seventies.
I’ve used it ever since.
Its as relevent today as in the 1500s when Machiavelli wrote it.
Plagarise, Don’t let anything evade your eyes!

I’ve been an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) implementor for over 25 years. A computer company (don’t remember which one) published this quote back at the beginning of my career and it has helped me remember how difficult change can be. Thank you Niccolo, you were certainly right about this.

Ron – I agree that this was a facinating quote and talk. I did not know much about Carly before listening to this but now have a desire to read her book and add it to the collection of leadership books that I have read.
