Quotes:

"We [Would] Have To Ask The Question, 'is What We're Doing Aligned With Our Goals?'"

"Are We Getting The Right Advice From The Right People? Because We Can Get Advice From Anybody."

"We Have To Be Very Intentional About What We're Being Rewarded With, And Making Sure That The Rewards That We're Getting, The Compensation We're Getting, Whatever Those Are, Serves Us. It's Not Hindering Us And Holding Us Back."
