Raising children isn’t easy. Leading people is equally as challenging. In a lot of ways, leadership is very similar to raising a child. The big goal is to build people who are self-sufficient and self-reliant, but the trick is knowing just how much help you should give along the way.

It was a loud, opinionated, and rough-around-the-edges leader who had immense influence over the direction of the organization.
