Value of Quantity: A phenomenon where the quality of a system changes once the amount of a single element surpasses a certain threshold. For example, if a restaurant that can normally serve up to 50 guests per day consistently has 100 customers daily, the capacity limit expands, and the quality of service improves. Of course, if they respond poorly, the service quality can decrease, but the outcome depends on the restaurant’s internal capabilities. Success or failure hinges on how we manage the excess amount beyond our capacity. Stock prices also depend on trading volume. Stocks tend to change their behavior only when a specific trading volume is reached. The good news is that stock prices can spike abruptly, but if the volume isn’t high enough, they can quickly fall.

Problem-solving attitudes are largely divided into “problem-oriented coping” and “emotional-focused coping.” In a bad situation, wise risk management is “problem-oriented coping.” We want to exclude emotions as much as possible to define the problem and properly prioritize our behavior. Leaders manage people and issues well, not dictatorships or charisma. Emotions make the leader's charisma stand out, but the organization suffers tremendously from the emotional storm. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

We remember Apple founder Steve Jobs as a strong leader with a stubborn streak and charisma, but he also consistently upheld the company's core values as its leader. While developing the iPhone 4, Jobs wanted to incorporate solar charging. Still, Apple's engineers disagreed, arguing that the technology at the time, would make the iPhone thicker than previous models and compromise the company's core value of simplicity. When confronted, Jobs gave up to stand his ground and listened to the engineers. The most important thing about leadership is not charismatic authority, but defining the company's core values and complying with them, even a highest-level officer. It's not a matter of power, but of defining core values and ensuring that everyone in the company has common interests in their meaning and that this understanding is shared internally. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
