Director of Business Development of the Southwest Region for Bennett Thrasher: Creating connections for CEO's, CFO's, and Business Professionals for their immediate needs.

As a #BusinessDevelopment professional, I've always believed that the true measure of impact lies beyond the boardroom - it's the conversations that happen outside, the whispers in corridors, and the buzz in meetings. Recently, I've been hearing whispers about my name surfacing in various discussions (cough Richard Y. Cheng, JD, CHC this am), and I love it. Rumors, far from being disconcerting, are actually a testament to the work we're doing. To know that people are bringing up your name in their meetings is the ultimate acknowledgment that your efforts are resonating in the right circles. It's a sign that you are making waves, your strategies are being noticed, and your presence is felt. In the realm of Business Development, this kind of feedback is pure gold. It reaffirms that we're on the right track, that our initiatives are catching attention, and that our vision is being shared across the table. Every mention of my name in those conversations is not just a whisper; it's a vote of confidence, a validation of my team's collective efforts. I love it. Keep on talking 😉. So, here's to embracing rumors as good thing, to relishing every mention in those crucial meetings, and to continuing to make waves in the world of business.
