Authenticity goes a long way when telling stories effectively.
Don’t try to fool your audience with imaginary scenarios — they can see it from a mile off.
You’ve lived an interesting life. You don't need to fabricate anything.

Don’t neglect critical projects for simple ones.
Leadership
Successful leadership
