“The seeing of objects involves many sources of information beyond those meeting the eye when we look at an object.

I'm not out there at every trade show, and so having an amazing team that can keep that vision month after month and keep the assortment consistent is a huge challenge. But something I think we execute every well.” ThinkingKnowsWellsDoeShowsJobsChallengesLevelsVisionTeamHugeMonthsTasteTradeIncrediblesConsistentSparksExecutionRoof Author:Sophia Amoruso
