Enforcing 9/9/6 top down is a cop out for actually inspiring people People will work hard if they believe the work is important and they'll be rewarded for working hard
new runway website just dropped! the old website was legendary for its time but a lot of people couldn't figure out what we actually did, so we made it a lot more boring because we're grown up now proud of the team's work on this! runway.com
At a startup you either build or sell. Or you help the people building and selling do more of it!

Summer K-1's are starting to trickle in... but you still have no idea who is going to prep your taxes for last year. If that sounds like you, shoot me a DM. @RivetTax is the #1 reviewed tax prep firm on @hi_samslist for a reason.
