Key Quotes:
“Focus in and make sure that you don't try to move your team by taking on too many phases all at one time. That's where disenfranchisement happens, that's where people get demoralized, and that's where failure starts to happen. Everybody wants to be a part of something that wins. And so being able to take that and just dial your vision back into steps and strategies as opposed to trying to eat the elephant all at one time, that's a really big deal.” - Michael King
“The culture has to support [the team’s] goals. It used to be the other way around. We come in and support the goals of the organization. But now if I'm looking at a role, it has to support the goals that I have in my life.” - Natalie Born
“And the thing that we find that burns leaders out a lot is not knowing the capacity of their team and knowing when to dial that back.” - Michael King
