About Jim Collins
Jim Collins is an American researcher, author, and lecturer on business management and company sustainability.

"Good is the enemy of great."
"The flywheel keeps turning; you do the work. The momentum builds and then — bang — you break through."
"Level 5 leaders channel their ego needs away from themselves and into the larger goal of building a great company."
