Key Takeaways:

• When you’re given a leadership position, you’ll be challenged to learn and do many things at once that you may not have done before.
• A leader doesn’t really need to teach people all the time, their role is to make sure that they have what they need to apply what they already know.
• Whatever you’re doing, make it more than just work, make it mean something.
• Your neighborhood is a great equalizer and a humanizer, it’s so much more than just a place to live - it’s a community where connections and relationships could grow.

“...Always ask questions before you make assumptions. The more you ask questions, the more you learn, the more you realize that your assumptions probably are off.” - Terrell Carter
