Advice from Elizabeth Murray

Quotes about career path, skills, and teamwork from an industry leader.
It’s very easy to get stuck in the day to day.
Give yourself the space to envision what you’re driving toward.
My team is an indispensable part of my job.
We've built a group that’s incredibly diverse, yet remarkably cohesive and supportive. In tough moments, one of us always steps up to motivate the rest; someone is always there to catch us and help us move forward.
Working at Dover had a huge impact on my career.
It felt like Alice falling through a trap door into another world — and in that world, I found my people. Even now, thinking about it makes me emotional. I fell in love with that job so hard — just being right in the thick of it.
I believe in taking big, educated bets on people, and I try to instill that in our teams.
I pay it forward because the bet Kim DiPalo made on me at Gramercy Tavern was the beginning of everything—it gave me access to a much bigger world.
You have to put yourself out there.
I say this to people all the time. No one but you has the responsibility for getting yourself from A to B.
