What's worse than having to hear people's speakerphone calls through thin office walls?

Glad you asked.

It's having to listen to the hold music while they wait for someone to speak with them. 🀦😒

β€’ create touch points to engage with customers, social, email, IRL, surveys
β€’ collaborate w/others!

This is a real thing. It’s so easy to say to yourself that you’ve never heard of this happening to anyone you know. Kids don’t care about that. They’ll still pull all the drawers out of their dresser…

If you're the CFO of an American beverage company, I can't imagine that you had "losing all Canadian sales" as part of your scenario planning for 2025. Ugh!

Wow! So many haters in these comments. I read this to say that regardless of our circumstances, we make a choice of whether we are happy or miserable. There are countless examples of this, beyond Castaneda.

Is that book Whatever You are, Be a Good One? Looks interesting.
