by Melissa Hereford | Dec 29, 2019 | Confident Conversations, Negotiate With Confidence

For many of us, this time of year is a blur with end of year work commitments, quarterly goals and shopping. We’re busy.  Finding a quiet moment to look back on the year feels like just another chore.  And 2019 was exhausting.  The endless bad news cycle makes us just...
