[A company] will only become a great company if it figures out how to apply technology to a coherent concept that reflects understanding of the three circles.
Technology-induced change is nothing new. The real question is not, What is the role of technology? Rather, the real question is, How do good-to-great organizations think differently about technology? (147)
Walgreens remained resolutely clear: Its Hedgehog Concept would drive its use of technology, not the other way around. (148)
When used right, technology becomes an accelerator of momentum, not a creator of it. (152)
…technology alone cannot create sustained great results.
Technology without a clear Hedgehog Concept, and without the discipline to stay within the three circles, cannot make a company great. (153)
…they emphasized other factors even more – getting people with a farmer work ethic on the bus… (157)

Crawl, walk, run can be a very effective approach, even during times of rapid and radical technological change. (163)
