Quotes:

“As you become more and more successful, it’s not how many times you say yes, it’s how many times just say no, even to potentially good opportunities.” – Tony Alessandra

“Companies and managers who are not devoting either the time, energy, or the money to even put their people through virtual training, I think they’re short-changing themselves in the long run.” – Tony Alessandra
