Conversations… conversations… conversations…

I learn more from talking to people then from anything else. Last weekend I met some one; he asked me what I did for a living. I blurted “Management”, I thought for a second… that’s my first. I typically respond with more specific about what I do or who I work for, etc. Interesting response must have been subconscious… This individual asked me what I meant by “Management”? Now I needed to respond with something that fit with my previous answer. I responded "I am in the business of leadership and people". That was the most apt answer I could think of at the time. Certainly very true! My role is all about my people, leading them, setting direction & managing change.
