Drip Quote by Mellody Hobson

“When I wanted the CEO of Starbucks to keep me in mind for their board, I sent him a note rather than calling. I call it dripping: You don't want to be like a faucet full-on; you want to drip just enough that they don't forget about you.” quote by Mellody Hobson — Download Open image
