    A great leadership lesson in this video. Can you give transcript of all your video on your website. It takes less time to read against listen to a video. Also a written note can be easily referred again.

    Best podcast so far. I love the concept of “unity” vs “diversity”. That is exactly why we have “diversity” training in the first place. These principles relate to engaging the Millennials workforce in so many ways.
