Business Outlook

Pros

People are smart, go-getters, optimists and dreamers.

Cons

Leadership has no idea where they are going, how they are going there. Very sad for the people in the organization. I saw bullying leaders and a lot of "bla, bla, producer centricity, bla" but no true vision, nor adaptative leadership, nor clarity on how to shift directions.
