To succeed over time in business, it’s not about being first or about having great technology. The winners over time are the companies that build the best relationships with their customers.
Take some time to create or refine your mission. Then use it to stay motivated, make decisions, and exceed your expectations for your own performance this year.
Think about the situation and your audience in advance, consider your desired outcomes, and determine when and with whom it’s best to “push” or “pull”.
Top performers who consistently exceed goals and expectations weekly, monthly, and yearly over several years find a way to maintain a high level of enthusiasm for their work.
