As a CEO, your job is not to know all the answers. Your job is to find the right people and create an environment where they can collaborate to find answers quickly.

Pretty wild that no matter what Steph Curry does the rest of his career, more titles, MVPs etc… most people won’t even consider him in the “greatest of all-time” conversation because he’s not 3 inches taller

Omicron is just across the bridge in Ontario. It’s not a question of if it comes to New York, but when. To everyone who has not yet been vaccinated, and especially those in Western New York: There’s no reason to wait. Get vaccinated. ny.gov/vaccine

This picture is collaborative policing at it's best. Jeff Lindor @gentsfactory_ through his program was able to bring economic & career opportunities to the Flatbush Community. Your FIO were able to refer 3 participants to the Green Construction Program. #Success @NYPDBklynSouth
