Dabo quote today by my company’s president
Nov 27, 2018, 9:11 PM
|
|
Today the worlds largest aerospace acquisition closed (United Technologies/ Rockwell Collins) and on the Day 1 employee call, our president quoted Dabo— I think we said “make being excellent a habit”. It was a worldwide call so he had to explain what Clemson was  .

Aristatole said that over 2,000 years ago. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, isn’t an act but a habit.”

Aristotole may have said it too, but his quotes were not very popular

It was on my English teacher’s wall in high school 20 years ago, which is the only reason I knew it immediately. I love Dabo, but he didn’t make that quote up. I’ve heard it many times in life.

I thought they executed those guys for "radical thinking." The beginnings of political correctness.

I worked for Rockwell International for 12 years (in Atlanta). Then we were acquired by Boeing in ‘97 (Rockwell Collins was not part of the acquisition).
Two years later, Boeing had transferred all successful (read: profitable) programs and contracts to Boeing facilities, terminated or sold off any that weren’t profitable; and closed our plant - terminating 1400 of the 1600 employees.
Good luck with your acquisition.
