Parents Are Creating At-Home Pandemic ‘Learning Pods’ With Professional Teachers, And They Can’t Overlook Homeowners Insurance When They Do

I’ll be honest, most people who know me would never describe me as quiet. At home, I can be loud on the phone, pacing around, talking through ideas, and yes, it drives my wife a little crazy. But recently, I’ve been discovering the benefits of something I didn’t think I’d ever embrace fully: quiet. 

One of the best parts of my job has always been getting out of the office and spending time with clients.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my career, it’s that the best leaders don’t wait until the last minute to plan for the future. Whether you’re running a team of five or five hundred, the earlier you start planning and budgeting, the stronger your results will be, not just for you, but for everyone who counts on you. 

One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned as a leader is that perspective is everything. You can sit in meetings, read reports, and talk strategy all day long, but if you’re only seeing the world from your desk, your view will always be limited.
