Issue 10 was released on February 28 and we’re sharing some of our thoughts on this recent edition of Forefront.
Preparation. That seemed to be the theme for this issue.
As you can imagine, we start preparing for each issue of Forefront months in advance. Due to the polar vortex- many times we had to even prepare to go outside and make it to the office. When we arrived we spent time, meticulously deciding what featured story we should include where and who our cover story should be. Preperation was in the forefront of our minds.
Preparation is a key to success, especially in looking at certain executives we’ve featured in issue 10:
Marc Washington, CFO of Beachbody, said he worked in a variety of issues, but wanted to prepare himself for bigger challenges. “I wanted to prepare myself for general management—not just helping solve problems for a company then handing it over, but actually being a part of implementing the results and owning the results as well.”
Greg Freiberg, Managing Director of Foretress Investment Group and CFO of New Media Investment Group, explains how a dedication for swimming helped prepare him for success in business. “I learned early on that if you want to achieve anything in swimming, you have to work your butt off.”
We feel that issue 10 was a great success, take a look at the latest stories on the web, iPad, or other tablet device to read more success stories.
