No. Sometimes, the best way to address big challenges is with energy and humor that keeps people engaged and nodding along. The kind that sparks an instant, “That’s so me!” connection, leading to a “We can do this!” strategy that turns into a “Let’s change the game!” breakthrough for an organization.
