Who is running this?
Andrew Bass. Former Army NCO. I built and ran a training organization that takes people from no experience to employed marketing and sales professionals. I'm now looking at the needs created by the infrastructure buildout, and I'd rather learn about those from operators than from consultants' reports. So I'm asking 40 of them directly.
