Quotes:

“The idea of the 80/20 rule is that only a certain part of your organization is shifting at any given time.”

“There’s no standard for what a job description is . . . everyone’s interested in skills, but one company will say they have 40 while another says they have 200,000.” Resources: Vemo)**Contact:**Peter's LinkedIn)David's LinkedIn)Podcast Manger: Karissa Harris)****Email us!)****Production by Affogato Media)
