SHOW NOTES:

THE BIG NAMES GET A LOT OF ATTENTION

We talk a lot about how much CEOs make
We talk a lot about the CEOs creating/executing strategy (good or bad)
We talk a lot about “rockstars” (see: Workday “rockstars” commercials)

Should we feel bad when we advocate for ourselves, since that’s how the merit/raise system works?
Should we be embarrassed
