The Security Insights Show Summer Break!
Late Summer - Early Fall Break! Pool - BBQue - Beer (or water)!
Hello Podcast Family. This is the first week of show being on our (new) annual break. It felt weird at first, I was like, hey what am I forgetting to do today? I panicked and ran upstairs to get in my chair and then I went OOOOOH.
Rest assured that we are making the show bigger and better (subjective).
In the meantime, we will occasionally (randomly) post tips, tricks, news and some of our favorite words of wisdom aka “Ed’s Edibles”, Rod Rant’s, Frank’s Fumble’s and Brodie’s Babble’s until our return.
Ed’s Edibles:
For a great payoff be especially curious about the things you are NOT interested in.
Rod Rants:
You see only 2% of another person and they see only 2% of you. Attune yourself to the hidden 98%.
Brodie Babbles:
When negotiating, don’t aim for bigger piece of the pie; aim to create a bigger pie.
Frank’s Fumbles:
Copying others is a good way to start. Copying yourself is a disappointing way to end.
