Quotes:

“Whether it's in your professional life or your personal life, think of yourself as the chief listening officer.”

“The biggest failure of leadership is not acting on what they've learned, following up, and following through.”

“If you listen to what they tell you and if they give you a couple of things that they need you to do to help them, it's all about follow-up and follow.”
