Yes, and… vs. But Hello. I’m Tony Mayo, the Business Owner’s Executive Coach with one quick idea you can use in your business …today. One of the most dangerous and harmful words we commonly use is … "but" Yeah, really. Banishing your buts in the way I’m about to suggest, will drive major improvement in your results —and …in your relationships. Consider this example.
