Quite often people are given responsibility, but not the authority to go with it. But I really worked hard to give them the authority to go with the responsibility of moving things forward and being leaders. So I think part of it was really believing in, in my coworkers listening, you gotta listen, gotta listen, you gotta listen to everybody. And I’m a talker and I’d rather do the talking. But I really had to learn to start listening better. I don’t care if it was my coworkers, board members, donors, the community, kids, you know, I had to listen. And what’s interesting is you should listen to everybody on your team. Not just the leadership, but to the folks at the different levels.
