Very interesting article. Though 14 steps seem a bit too many. But perhaps they are really required. Some of the statements show great insight. For example: 'Why should quality be different from the real world?' The results of communication are real and long-lasting; the results of motivation are shallow and short-lived.' I enjoyed reading this and will surely try it out.
