I also did something quite out of the ordinary for me. I made a few copies of this & shared it with a few senior leaders at work that I was in a meeting with. Who knows what impact it may have?

Documentary evidence unearthed by the Quote Investigator identifies Carl W. Bruehner as the originator in 1971.
