I suppose it's possible that these posters can motivate a team, but only if everyone on the team knows and understands, on a deep level, what the slogans stand for. Unfortunately, it's very tempting to skip the part where you have a set of long, hard, emotionally draining conversations with the team, where the team puts measurements in place that help them see when they're not holding to their stated goals, where they get frustrated but keep trying to improve things anyway. Why go through all of that when you can just put up a poster!

(edit: My point is that these posters seem like they should be earned, not just purchased.)

The last one is so true it hurts.

I think I might design a custom poster that says that ;-)

Do not buy. These are from the evil LeadLander guys: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4891637

Ok... is there any evidence of that, or are we just going with bald assertion?

edit: Nevermind. Their website says they're part of Draugiem Group, which does seem to own Relead.
