Lead with questions, not product dumps. The right question opens more doors than the best feature ever will.4️⃣ Volume creates valueDanee’s fast-track success came from putting in major volume—cases, calls, reps. More time in the OR and with your team puts you ahead faster than any shortcut.5️⃣ It’s okay to mess up—just don’t stay downYou’ll get yelled at, make mistakes, and forget things.
