## Resource

In this Founder’s Story episode, Daniel Robbins sits down with Vera Quinn, President and CEO of Cydcor, to discuss why she believes human-to-human sales still matters in an AI-driven world. Vera shares how a summer door-to-door sales job became the foundation for a decades-long career, why rejection became one of her greatest teachers, and how she rose through Cydcor to become its first female President and CEO. The conversation also explores immigrant work ethic, personal sacrifice, motherhood, ambition, leadership, learning the skills required to become CEO, and Vera’s work with Liberty Children’s Home in Belize.
