In a Results-Only Work Environment, no one asks: 🚫”What time did they log on?” 🚫”Were they at their desk?” 🚫”Did they attend the meeting?” They ask: ✅”Did the work move the needle?” ✅”Are the outcomes measurable?” ✅”Was the impact clear?” #GoROWE

Where have I grown, even if it’s invisible?

It’s the choices, not the fears.
