Business Development Manager
CurrentAt my very first job I was fortunate to work directly with a Sales Executive that took me under his wing almost immediately. He taught me something that I'll never forget, being successful as a professional is just about being friendly and helpful. So simple yet profound in business. Sometimes we find ourselves in positions that being neither friendly or helpful to co-workers, customers, vendors, managers, direct reports, etc. is more challenging than it is attainable but finding the high road and sticking to this simple concept can do wonders. Thank you Russell Kroeker for that lesson. You are missed. For those reading this, I challenge you to apply this in your day-to-day interactions in your work life. You can do it, I have faith.
