HIGHLIGHT QUOTES
[00:53:41] "Who do we think is the champion? Right? And it's
probably who do we think is the champion? Because an
understanding if you're new to the organization, there's probably
not a firm notion of what a champion is. And, you know, the
definition we have is person with political respect and or
technical authority who fights for us when we're not there and I
have the and or in their job, because I think in a lot of cases
with consensus, certain environments, those 2 things are very
distinct today in some cases." - Anthony Palladino
[00:57:59] “I think establishing a leadership team that is
with each other. They're supporting each other. They're with each
other. You're sharing that common goal to the mission. And but
doing it, you know, as people and really creating that that's
that's I think it doesn't come easy because you have to create a
special relationship.” - Anthony Palladino
