CEOs tell me that they want people:
-Who are full of ambition and goals.
-Who sing—well, silently hum—at work.
-Who stretch themselves every day and who always have new challenges they’re hankering to take on.
-Who get an emotional kick out of any accomplishment.
-Who are juiced (in the nonsteroid way) every morning to get out of bed and go for it.
-Are hungry (figuratively).
-Are afraid of not fulfilling their destiny.
So seek excellence in the execution of the job at hand regardless of whether you work for a waste treatment plant, a herpes medication company, or even a politician.
