In the Stones documentary Shine the Light, Martin Scorsese asks Keith Richards who he thinks is the better guitarist, himself or Ronnie Wood. The question was tongue-in-cheek, but Keith answers in kind:
"The truth is we are both sh*t - but together - we are better than any ten…"
Thanks to Jason Jon for sending this anecdote my way. Forward it to your favorite colleagues!
Who's the Ronnie Wood to your Keith Richards, and what makes the relationship/collaboration so effective?
Send a trackback!

My Ronnie Wood was my previous manager. We always managed to find a good laugh in every day and he ALWAYS had my back. He pushed me and made me better. He gave me a tremendous amount of coaching, especially around the area of influencing others (which is oh-so-important when you work in a matrix organization). I'd give my right arm to be working with him again. People like that are just all too rare.
