Besides the two breathtaking episodes on TSMC and Dr. Morris Chang , I am just 10 minutes into The Art of Selling Enterprise Software (with ServiceNow CEO Bill McDermott) and then this quote blows my mind so much I had to pause listening to write it down: I always tell people in sales, and I said it then, performance is the price of freedom. I never wanted to sit in internal meetings and have a boss tell me what to do or how to do it. What I would just tell them is, I’ll be number one in the country or number one in the world. Just let me run. I'll just add that this should not be the case for Sales only. (I think I've found another favorite podcast 😅 , and I got the t-shirt )
