Tweetable Quotes:

“Small changes, small choices, and small habits can make a big difference.” - Ryan Cote

“I always remind myself to be in a good mood even if I’m not feeling it, because there is a ripple effect. If I come into the office just down and angry, the team’s going to feel that and then they might internalize that and affect their performance and their attitude.” - Ryan Cote

“I think human connection and relationships especially now, is so key to be conscious of it and be aware of how you’re helping or hurting.” - Ryan Cote
