How to work effectively with cross-functional teams
How to identify and prioritize customer needs
Later in the day (after I had taken a much-needed power nap to calm my boiling nerves) I sat down to analyze the feedback my boss had given me and realized he was right after all.

It needs to take a person’s feelings into consideration, but be straight to the point and incite the needed ch...
