Best Story

Origin Story

I was sitting in a meeting red-faced and humiliated. A senior VP just evicerated me in a meeting for bringing up a software issue because I was, "going off topic." I was her latest victim, but not her first.
I went back to my office unable to focus on my team, seeing the impact these encounters had on me - It was in that moment I thought - "I want to teach others how to lead."
