Quotes

“My job as a leader is to make sure that we're building trust with the team with how we're using that properly, we're using those assets, we're using those tools in an appropriate way. And not to pick you apart or be critical, but to learn and to grow and understand what our clients want, so we can kind of get more bullseye with fewer arrows on the solutions that we provide back to them.”
