Quotes from the Episode:
“Something has to feed us on a regular basis to keep us in check so we coach from a standpoint of coach and coachee.”

“If you don’t have the ability to have full ownership, you don’t set out on that journey, it’s very unlikely you’re going to be rising up as a leader.”

“When you have multiple people all in a role of decision making and no one has truly made a decision, blame is just around the corner.”
