Michael Scott Quote #276
Quote from Michael Scott in Booze Cruise
Captain Jack: So, what's this presentation all about?

Captain Jack: That's a stupid analogy.
Michael Scott: Okay. Well, obviously you don't know anything about leadership.
Captain Jack: Well, I was the captain of a PC-1 Cyclone coastal patrol boat during Desert Storm.

Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: I am a great motivational speaker. I attended a Tony Robbins event by the airport last year and... It wasn't the actual course. You have to pay for the actual course. But it talked about the actual course. And I've incorporated a lot of his ideas into my own course.
Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: Leader ship. The word "ship" is hidden inside the word "leadership" as its derivation. So if this office is in fact a ship, as its leader, I am the captain. But we're all in the same boat. Teamwork!
