Lowered the bar to claim your expertise

However, the marketplace has

NOT lowered the standards to recognize that expertise

The point is:

You can claim expertise in whatever you want but the marketplace still wants PROOF!

Rajesh,

You have taken a sharp pin and pricked the balloon of false thought-leadership marketing. I found myself laughing and nodding through the entire sequence.
