Coach Steve Scanlon and I recently facilitated a leadership conference for a great national, long-time partner of ours. The desired end result for this conference was that all managers would connect with one another, get clarity on what the current reality looked like (both for their company and industry) and reconnect with the company’s vision. Then, the front line managers would create new strategies to bridge the gap from their current reality to what they see for themselves in the future. This would be no small feat!

I was able to pour into him.
