This is my grandson, Arlo, wearing one of my merch hats (and looking adorable while doing so). His sidekick is Murphy. This post is more personal and is a reprieve from the usual (drier) research and intelligence-related topics covered here!
Because of the time of year, I am inspired to give thanks for all the wonderful things in my life, starting first and foremost with my family. I am thankful for my long career as a business researcher and for the clients that continuously trust me with their important research projects and needs. Last but not least, I am thankful for supportive colleagues and my friends, you know who you are.
Happy Thanksgiving!
