What Leaders Say
Already wrote an email summary to our leaders, with 7 action items for various folks to follow up on.
Some of the topics will spur strategic discussions within my division as well with agency leadership.
Several takeaways that I will be able to use to enhance our strategy, optimize current processes, and improve our day to day.
I share the presentations with my team for review as well as to gauge if any vendors might meet our needs.
I like to hear from those that are living the issues... those that are doing it confirm real world discussions.
