What Guides My Decision-Making: Decisions should be made in 10 seconds, 10 minutes, 10 hours or 10 days. You must understand which scenario you are dealing with, and then appropriately bind your consideration.
Most Important Leadership Quality: To me, the most important quality is the ability to develop and build a high-functioning team and then inspire them with the belief that can be achieved.
What I’d Tell 16-Year-Old Me: This, too, shall pass, good or bad; that moment, which seems life or death, will be fleeting, so the focus should be on how you handle those peaks and troughs.
Favorite Quote: “If I had an hour to solve a problem, I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about solutions.” — Albert Einstein
Proudest Moment: While it is wonderful to achieve, I have found that self-achievement pales compared to watching your kids succeed.
