Great talk? Maybe if you were introduced to baseball yesterday. If the words “data” and “sticky stuff” were removed from his presentation it would have been about 5 minutes long. The relevant info could be presented in a 2 minute TikTok video. That guy is a perfect illustration of why I can’t stand corporate America.
