As we navigate this new norm, I have found myself reflecting on and re-learning some key lessons from my past. 

Over the next two weeks, I want to share some of those key lessons. The first one is The Power of Authenticity.

Authenticity is one of the qualities that separate great leaders from the merely good ones. It is one of the differences between those who blossom in a crisis and those who wither. 

You can watch my three part series on The Power of Authenticity here.
