Summary
Here's what is good and true: Relationship and trust are the currency of everything we do. I've been privileged to greatly achieve results that have benefited stakeholders, and receive recognition and accolades for excellence in my work not only in my current position, but previous as well. As wonderful as that is, what is more wonderful are the relationships I've developed that move the needle in any and all industries we can think of. Data and performance are incredibly important, yes, but relationships are the most raw, legitimate needle movers we posses. That is, and will always be, my greatest achievement. The ability to see, pause, understand and impart intrinsic value.
