Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had a playoff performance for the ages. His eight home runs were the most by a Toronto Blue Jays batter in a single postseason. The 29 hits he registered ranked second all-time in MLB postseason history. He also became the first player to hit a grand slam in Blue Jays’ postseason history during the ALDS. Even though the Blue Jays suffered heartbreak at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series, Guerrero Jr. cemented his playoff legacy with an epic performance. It certainly didn’t go unnoticed in his hometown of Don Gregorio, Dominican Republic. Fans from his hometown poured into the streets to celebrate Guerrero Jr. with a massive parade on Friday. > Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s hometown of Don Gregorio, Dominican Republic threw a parade for him > > (via @hgomez27) pic.twitter.com/ppGxonDbV6 > > — Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) November 7, 2025 The 26-year-old star was seen hanging out of the top of a black Cadillac Escalade with giant speakers behind him.

Your Career Isn't a Meritocracy. It's a Trustocracy.

Trustocracy sounds funny, but it's a more accurate representation of how we're measured. We aren't (and can't) be measured objectively on what we accomplish at work. But we are (unavoidably) measured by the trust we've built with our co-workers.
