BEST MOMENTS

"It's one thing for me to tell you, Hey, I'm really great at this, but if I can demonstrate impact and show. This is what I've done. And this is what I can do for you. That particularly helps people transition into new opportunities." 

"When I've got somebody at a company who can say, Hey, I know Doug, he's a great guy. He's amazing what he does. We should get him in here for an interview." 

"Demonstrating thought leadership, right, where I'm not selling you anything. I'm not trying to get you to buy something. I'm just sharing knowledge. I'm talking about how I've solved problems using that knowledge." 

"It's just being very solutions oriented." 

"If you just keep working the problem, we'll find a solution."
