The Business of Business Development
The sea is a powerful master. It teaches patience, perseverance and timing. If you underestimate any of these elements, the sea will always win. In the world of business development, I’m constantly reminded I need to balance my instinct to push hard, full throttle open, to promote a great product - insurance for boaters, by boaters - with the patience and grit required to develop strategic relationships over time. And at the right time.
