StudentDebtSurvivor Great point.  I’ve found it surprising how difficult it is to challenge the status quo.  Sometimes slowly chipping away at it (in a respectful way, as you said), is the best way to go.

for others would be to challenge the status quo (in a respectful way).
Just because something has been done one way for a long period of time
doesn’t mean that’s the most efficient way to do it. Don’t be afraid to
speak up.

TheHeavyPurse Definitely!  Networking outside of your team (and even your company) can really open your eyes to opportunities and perspectives).
