“Advice to any leader is to know what your culture is and what your people are feeling and experiencing. It’s very important that you’re part of the solution with your staff. If you lose sight of that, then your staff doesn’t feel your support. I think there are times we have difficult situations that occur, and you want to give your staff support in both positive and growing ways.”
