An interview from a marketing film for a bank. He's talking about his experience in the banking business and interacting with co-workers. Every time this guy speaks, it's like a riddle...
Ни одна процедура, ни один порядок (как все это нужно делать) не заменят эффективность понятия «с полуслова». Потому что мы друг другу доверяем и очень знаем предмет досконально, чем мы занимаемся. Нам доверяют люди. Мы доверяем партнерам.
Thanks!
