Storytelling is a superpower. Ted Merz, you have been doing an excellent job at showcasing that superpower. Made me nostalgic about that townhall that Mike held! I hope all is well with you!

Great story Ted! The incremental aspect, evolution rather than revolution, you're right, it is those small things that make a difference. Reminded me of Sir David Brailsford and the aggregation of marginal gains.

Edward Roussel

Head of Digital

You’re an excellent writer. To your point, best definition I heard about Bloomberg was that is was 100k company visits that translated into 1000 product improvements. Incremental pain points solved.

Very well told story. Thanks Ted Merz, CFA ! The leaders I have had the privilege to work and collaborate with that pay attention to small details tend to get big results
