Sharing some snippets from two of his recent posts that really caught my attention...

- "Our one-on-ones are pointless."
- Everyone says they're fine. Then they quit," the director told me.
- "It's not a one-on-one," I said.

- "Turns out when you stop interrogating people,
- they start telling you the truth."
