Quotes

"We have so much opportunity through our teams, clients, customers, and communities we serve to make an impact. And making an impact also differentiates your brand." - Seth Streeter
"Helping your team help create the vision, drives engagement, and builds buy-in." - Seth Streeter
"I came up with this framework life in three phases. 1.0 is when we get our sense of identity. And then we start our field of study, and we start our careers, we get married, we create a company, that's a phase of 2.0, which is the responsibility. And there comes a time when many people start to go, wow, I've achieved what I wanted to professionally, my kids are starting to become more independent, and I've made a little bit of money. That's when people begin to think about 3.0, the phase of freedom." - Seth Streeter
"As marketers and leaders, we're tasked with being visionaries. We need to be innovating, seeing where companies are going, what our future customer needs, anticipating those needs, and anticipating the changing market landscape of our industry. And yet, if we live in the same four walls and hang out with the same six people, it's hard to have that renewed perspective. So, by putting ourselves in new places, with new people doing new experiences, we expand our perspectives." - Seth Streeter
."Putting ourselves in unfamiliar environments, that's part of having a growth mindset." - Seth Streeter
