Dogged Decisions
A COMIC EXPLORING WHAT IT TAKES TO BECOME A LEADER.
In the “new normal” era of how professionals work, one thing hasn’t changed:
the values and ethics that elevate a company’s culture. We discuss these values on the Durakis Executive Search blog. We also take a lighthearted view in our comic. Dogged Decisions follows the journey of Tim, a worker who aspires to earn a leadership role. The company dog, Ryan, is always close by to guide Tim’s professional journey. Follow along to enjoy a laugh as they navigate some all-too-familiar office encounters.
