The great ships and the railroad put us in possession of the most favourable facilities. From the first the organization was successful. We built up a huge trade, mining and carrying ore to Cleveland and other lake ports. We kept on building and developing until finally the fleet grew until it included fifty-six large steel vessels, This enterprise, in common with many other important business undertakings in which I was interested, required very little of my personal attention, owing to my good fortune in having active, competent, and thoroughly reliable representatives who assumed so largely the responsibilities of administration. It gives me pleasure to state that the confidence which I have freely given to business men with whom I have been associated has been so fully justified.

白话
洛克菲勒说，大船和铁路让他们占尽优势，公司一开张就顺，把矿石运到克利夫兰和湖区港口，生意越做越大，最后拥有五十六艘大钢船。这门生意和其他许多重要项目一样，几乎不用他亲自操心，因为他运气好，有一批积极、能干、完全可靠的代理人替他扛下管理责任。他说，自己放心把信任交给共事的商人，而这份信任每次都被证明值得。核心是：老板的本事不在事事亲为，而在选对人、给足信任，让组织自己跑起来。
