Tweetable Quotes:
“At the end of the day, I believe great businesses are built by great people—it’s not great products. I think a great product is a critical component, but it comes from having great, unbelievable people. When people are emotional—when there is unnecessary strife, and people are stressed—it causes things to go into chaos mode.” – Matt Currie
“There’s no such thing as an acquisition. It’s a merger because you are merging cultures together.” – Matt Currie
