Notable Quotes
- You're the owner of your career. You are in the driver's seat. Your manager and board of directors will be the CO pilots that get into the passenger seat with you and help you navigate to the next point of success.
- Feedback is a gift; when someone gives it to you or is generous, just say thank you. Don't be afraid to ask other people what they think of you, and then listen to what they say, especially the developmental needs, even if you don't agree with the expressed needs.
