First off hello everyone, it's Evan! You know me! How are you doing? You pet your dog or cat lately? Go do it. They love you. Okay, time for a review. Let’s see, wherever I go people tend to treat me well so what is UNIQUE about Venture X. It is this. They can speak. Now hear me out. So many people do not know how to speak properly. Meaning, can you give me the facts I need in a way that is quick, useful and comfortable. The staff at Venture X can speak! At least Elizabeth, Talbot and all the staff I met at Venture X have this ability. Let us go down the list; Elizabeth is ( delightfully ) scary in her ability to hold a bit of information you shot at her and recall it later in a useful way that helps you find what you need. She is also deeply socially versatile. Let us use a metaphor for Elizabeth. Have you ever seen a duck calmly chilling on the water as a storm is causing big waves? You look at the duck and you think, how can the duck just be so Zen when a wave is about to knock off its feathers? Elizabeth is the duck. The chaotic waves are hundreds of daily conversations she is pulled in and out of. Elizabeth’s Zen is the glue that holds a lot together. Talbot can hold space when someone is talking to him in the same way a therapist with 30 years of practice can hold space. It is uncanny and deeply appreciated. He has allowed me to articulate myself fully and reason in real time while I talk to him because his silence and attention are so on point. He jumps in right at the perfect moment to help the conversation. Elizabeth and Talbot have been extremely useful and attentive to my needs. And why is that? Once again, they can speak. A lost art I value.
