“You feel as having the main role in the
training”“My team doesn’t only want more money, I realize. They
want me to be there for them. They want me to see
them.”“It’s about doing your
work in a more conscious way, thinking of your role
as person, as leader”
“In 10 years I can be leading a team. And It feels powerful to realize that all I
need to do it is to be my better self.”
