It is truth that after few months, there is an increase in company sales and marketing under the leadership of this young man.

After that, General Manager explained to everyone that:” Sales and marketing requires creativity. It needs people think out of the box and more creative. All of you are just used to be obedient and it has killed your creativity and your curiosity. But this is not suitable for a good sales or marketing executive! Curiosity may probably kill a cat , but if you are just a automatic working machine, isn’t very sad?”

P/S: Sales and Marketing job requires us to think out of the box. To be creative, it requires our curiosity and courage.
