Is it possible to make partner or managing director without traveling? ERP implementations. I have been a top performer for many years but may need to leave the firm if this is a deal breaker. I don’t see enough local projects due to the small market in Southern California.

My take is that at the end of the day, the delivery and sales side of the job is to meet clients where they are. I would say that a lot of delivery can happen virtual these days, but for business development, I get so much more out of meeting in person vs. a zoom catch up. Maybe in-house would be better.

Are you looking for zero travel or minimal travel? I don’t think it’s a deal breaker but it’s def making a difficult path a bit more difficult.

Has anyone been disciplined or fired for not meeting their hours? Do they just give you more work when your hours are low or are you excepted to constantly ask for more?
