In today's episode, we dive into a compelling discussion that debunks a widely believed misconception in the business world. Our guest speaker, passionately shares their journey of winning a significant contract without relying on certifications. They emphasize the importance of proving one's ability through action, rather than getting caught up in the certification frenzy.
