1. I measure success by the team’s output — nothing else. I’m not here for the spotlight or to stack up speaking gigs.

    → If the work isn’t great, that’s entirely on me. No excuses.

  2. My job is simple: ensure team members have the tools needed to succeed and stay out of the way.

    → My default posture is to trust team members — to treat people like the adults they are.

    → But I don’t throw people to the wolves. I’m always nearby to lend a helping hand.
