Wisdom Wednesday – “Leadership is about going out of your comfort zone to help others.”

I was once in an interview where I was asked about my definition of leadership. I was in a terrible head space so I froze up then gave an answer that basically insulted everyone in the room! I’ll probably try a “redo” of that question in blog form some day as I have lots of […]
