How to Be a Fly on the Wall of Your Competition

2018-01-17T15:31:10-08:00

Oh, to be a fly on the wall at [fill-in-the-blank]! To be invisible at a client-vendor meeting. To be invisible at your in-laws! To be invisible in Donald Trump’s boardroom! (Oh, wait. We already get to see that one. “You’re fired!”)
