shared story of connection and growth… 📖💬

For Old school leadership... "Excellent article. I think your comments about 'Lose your groupies' hits the mark. You see senior leaders and their posse striding through hallways, engaged in their special conversations. You see senior teams sitting at special VIP or head table at regional and national meetings. And, they all sit together at the luncheons and dinner events."

Reading your article this morning was like having a much-needed coffee with someone I can look up to. Thank you once again."
