I like to communicate, and it comes easily to me as does sharing information. It has been an effort and consistent work to be less concerned about what i say and more concerned about listening to others. The power dynamics are also an interesting factor. When I joined this team as a consultant, I was anxious to "prove" my contribution - I could have gone more slowly, assessed the team dynamics and power structure. We had a few instances where partners were put off, so we had to dialogue, and I had to slow down and listen. It wasn't resolved immediately after our 1-1 discussion, however over time we came to understand each other and honor the other's contribution to the workings of the team and our joint discussions.

The leader I have in mind not only knows his business but is inspired to help others create the "first two rungs" of an employment ladder. Those rungs that are often created by higher education but he feels can be created by him as an employer leader with the help of workforce partners. We have to help create that and not assume everyone can follow the same path.
