How do you collaborate with your team? Do you take the time to ask their opinions, check in with them, find out what they need from you as their leader?

In this episode, Amy is joined by Robert “Bo” Brabo. Throughout his career, Bo  has always focused on the people, helping them tackle their issues as if they were his own.

Quote from the show - ‘‘When I'm meeting with my team and they're telling me what they've accomplished, they're telling me about any impacts they have had on their day or what other people, external forces might be having on them and getting their job done or any impediments, it's really about me listening, active listening, to ensure I can then discern what needs to be done and what actions need to take place’.
