Humility is key. 6. **Mindful Communication:** Choose your words carefully, speak clearly, and be mindful of the impact your words can have on others. 7. **Offer Help:** Extend a helping hand or offer assistance when appropriate. Acts of kindness leave a positive impression. 8. **Memorability:** Share interesting anecdotes or unique aspects about yourself that make you memorable in a positive way. 9. **Sense of Humor:** Appropriately use humor to lighten the mood and create a more relaxed atmosphere. 10. **Respectful Curiosity:** Show genuine curiosity about others, asking thoughtful questions and showing respect for their experiences and opinions.
For work, I traveled 28 times this year. Looking back on photos, I should have taken way more! The last trip of the year, a team gathering in Dallas, was an absolute highlight of FY23. Grateful for the memories and opportunities that were presented and created in 2023. What was the best work trip you took this year?
Well said! One of my favorite things about our industry is all the connections we make along the way. Mike Wolber, I will never forget our initial conversation at NAA in 2022. Thanks for taking the time to meet with a newcomer to the industry. I look forward to running into you again!
