"What makes me optimistic? Even though history is not a true predictor of the future, I have been very fortunate to surround myself with beautiful people. I have been extended privilege in life that I am very grateful for. I am blessed with many internal and external gifts. I am optimistic because I feel I am contributing positively to my immediate circle and wider society."
That's what Vadim Taube told me when I asked him what makes him optimistic.
Vadim is the Chief Executive Officer at InfoChoice.
I asked Vadim about the positive leaders and bosses who have inspired him.
Vadim told me, A positive leader that inspires me is Scott Carter. He was my CEO at a public company. He is still my friend and mentor. He is an infectiously positive, energetic, humble and intelligent individual."
