As of this writing, I’ve been at Salesforce for five months. But it feels like I’ve been with the Ohana for much longer — in a good way. Taking a moment to look back and connect the dots, I see becoming Ranger as a big reason for that good feeling. Here are a few practices I picked up on my journey.
