You are the company II

Your personal reputation will become the firm’s reputation. Keep it pristine. Mix vanilla ice cream with dirt–you get dirt. There is no such thing as half pristine.

Check your libido at the front door the moment you leave home. Keep it zipped and keep it buttoned.

There is zero upside to any sexual shenanigans in your firm, not even worth explaining. If you don’t understand that, quit now to save yourself the humiliation that will inevitably follow.

The same goes for your direct reports. The Wall Street Journal has the C section, the New York Post, page 6. You and your team never want to be mentioned in either.
