I Loved What I Did.

Well, The Thing That I Learned As A Diplomat Is That Human Relations Ultimately Make A Huge Difference.

As A Leader, You Have To Have The Ability To Assimilate New Information And Understand That There Might Be A Different View.

One Of The Issues I Kept Saying To My Students Is You Have To Learn To Interrupt. When You Raise Your Hand At A Meeting, By The Time They Get To You, The Point Is Not Germane. So The Bottom Line Is Active Listening. If You Are Going To Interrupt, You Look For Opportunities. You Have To Know What You're Talking About.

The Greatest Thrill In My Life Was To Represent The United States Of America.
