Ask for Help
“In the hallway, over coffee, on a quick call. ‘Hi, I’m working on/dealing with “x” situation, I know you have experience here, and I’d love to get your guidance. This could be only 5-10 minutes, but worth a lifetime of leapfrogging mistakes and accelerating learning.” Don’t ever be afraid to ask for help, says Kat Cole, COO and President, North America at FOCUS Brands.
