Legendary Quotes:
“There's this phenomenon called sheltering, right? People staying in jobs that they know that they're misaligned to. They know that there's a feeling that somehow, whether it's the values of the company or they're not being challenged or their compensation is compromised, they stay. And I can understand why. Because it's safe.” – Loren Greiff
“Networking isn't broken. Maybe your approach needs some help. These things are all part of a larger effort, not a one-and-done.” – Loren Greiff
