- Denis Villeneuve

I have yet to meet members of a leadership team who I thought lacked the intelligence or the domain expertise required to be successful.

- Patrick Lencioni
#Direction
Certainly if I were to think in terms of a field that would have required a different mode of education, I think I would have leaned in the direction of being a therapist.
