“To use your calendar as a production-planning tool, you must accept responsibility for two things: 1. You should move toward the active use of your calendar, taking the initiative to fill the holes between the time-critical events with non-time-critical though necessary activities. 2. You should say “no” at the outset to work beyond your capacity to handle. It is important to say “no” earlier rather than later because we’ve learned that to wait until something reaches a higher value stage and then abort due to lack of capacity means losing more money and time.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“But at least you know that alternatives do exist: equipment capacity, manpower, and inventory can be traded off against each other and then balanced against delivery time.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“What is important is the thinking you force yourself to go through to understand the relationship between the various aspects of your production process.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“What is important is the thinking you force yourself to go through to understand the relationship between the various aspects of your production process.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“People who plan have to have the guts, honesty, and discipline to drop projects as well as to initiate them, to shake their heads “no” as well as to smile “yes.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“Because each alternative costs money, your task is to find the most cost-effective way to deploy your resources—the key to optimizing all types of productive work. Bear in mind that in this and in other such situations there is a right answer, the one that can give you the best delivery time and product quality at the lowest possible cost. To find that right answer, you must develop a clear understanding of the trade-offs between the various factors—manpower, capacity, and inventory—and you must reduce the understanding to a quantifiable set of relationships.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“We have now turned things into a continuous operation at the expense of flexibility, and we can no longer prepare each customer’s order exactly when and how he requests it. So our customers have to adjust their expectations if they want to enjoy the benefits of our new mode: lower cost and more predictable product quality.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“As a rule of thumb, a manager whose work is largely supervisory should have six to eight subordinates; three or four are too few and ten are too many. This range comes from a guideline that a manager should allocate about a half day per week to each of his subordinates.”
Quote by -Andy Grove
“If this country is ever demoralized, it will come from trying to live without work.”
Quote by -Abraham Lincoln
“It is not sufficient to see and to know the beauty of a work. We must feel and be affected by it.”
Quote by -Voltaire
I've always felt that I would rather see an actor, writer, or musician's work, rather than actually know the person. If you know too much about an artist, it somehow lessens their ability to do their work as well.
Quote by -Christian Bale
'Batman' took 10 months to film, and by the time I stopped working on it, it took a long time before my English accent came out again. I was actually having to try for it.
Quote by -Christian Bale
If you're smart you're just gonna be all about the work. But as a young person, you want to going out to clubs and doing all the stuff. I'm just glad I survived it.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I don't say: 'can't do that', 'won't do that'. I've never thought in that way about work.
Quote by -Daniel Craig
The worst situation you can have in a thriller is a lead who looks like he can handle himself.
Quote by -Daniel Craig
A lot of the TV shows, they do long hours, and they do a lot of days, and you don't get a lot of time. But the good thing is, if you get one that's made in L.A., or made in a place you want to be, you get to go home every night.
Quote by -Jason Statham
I've been unfortunate enough to be working, and recovering from a few injuries now and again.
Quote by -Jason Statham
I really enjoyed working with Guy Ritchie. One, it gave me a career, and two, they're probably a couple of the best films I've ever done.
Quote by -Jason Statham
The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.
Quote by -Jason Statham
It's not like I'm dying to do work that's taken seriously, and I'm not looking to become a thespian. It's not what I'm looking for; I'm just looking to do quality work.
Quote by -Jason Statham
A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.
Quote by -Alexander Pope
I used to love it when I walked down the street and construction workers would whistle.
Quote by -Eartha Kitt
Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.
Quote by -Walt Disney
Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.
Quote by -Walt Disney
If you go to Africa and you're white, you're probably not going to get that much work either. But the fact is that there is a longer history of black integration in the U.S. I don't have any resentment about this: I did the maths, calculated it against my ambition and decided to leave England.
Quote by -Idris Elba
There's a fast-track if you can do the networking. For some personalities it works, but for mine it doesn't.
Quote by -Idris Elba
Being able to work with Ridley Scott on this film is like being able to play on the Olympic team for actors.
Quote by -Idris Elba
Every leading lady I work with, I'll see if I can get a song out of them and put it on an album.
Quote by -Idris Elba
I've always been DJing; it's just I'm making more of a push for it, making it more public.
Quote by -Idris Elba
Years ago I met Richard Burton in Port Talbot, my home town, and afterwards he passed in his car with his wife, and I thought, 'I want to get out and become like him'. Not because of Wales, because I love Wales, but because I was so limited as a child at school and so bereft and lonely, and I thought becoming an actor would do that.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
I spent two years in the military service, then I trudged around in repertory for quite a while. I somehow wound up at the National Theatre, though, and then I was definitely on my way.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
The knighthood was a tremendous honour, I don't dismiss it. But I feel embarrassed by the flowery, theatrical stuff that goes with being an actor.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
I worked at the Steel Company Of Wales when I was 17. My job was to supply tools to the guys working the blast furnaces.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
I worked with Steven Spielberg on Amistad... he seemed so very secure in himself that he let me do things.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
I got to work with one of my heroes, Johnny Depp, and to see how he goes about business, which was really inspiring for me at this stage in my career.
Quote by -Orlando Bloom
I crave working on those small independent movies because I love going to see those myself.
Quote by -Orlando Bloom
I worry about that terribly because the public eye can bring all sorts of unwanted intrusions and problems. But he's treading his own path. I think the modeling is something that Rafferty Law sees as a pastime and something to maybe give him a bit of pocket money. He's a musician mostly. He's in college studying music, which he takes very seriously and I think that is something that he will concentrate on in the future.
Quote by -Jude Law
