One of the things that makes one a leader is the responsibility to make decisions. Many of the decisions you make are obvious and easy calls. Other choices are more complicated, and some of the more challenging decisions require you decide even though you lack information. Some of the hardest decisions you will struggle to make will be difficult, political, unpopular, and require the will to act.

Companies all over the world, including Marriot International and Hilton Worldwide, are aware of the value of including DEI in their talent acquisition strategy.

We consistently present sales processes and the buyer’s journey as linear processes, when we depict them on a slide as a direct path, beginning on the left side and ending on the right.
