You Know You Don’t Know Enough

■ Learn how to improve from what you’re learning.
■ Take on individual and group learning and hang with good, smart
people in and out of the office.
■ Seek global awareness.

collect it, and store it into their brains, computers, or trusted adminis-
trative assistants.

“What’s here that would be beneficial to understand?” I read every-
thing I can and tap into everything I can.

have to come in wanting to learn.
