Nick Korte, this was the most in-depth podcast interview I have done and I appreciate the time you took to cover various aspects. This conversation about taking on a management role will be pertinent for many as we often hesitate to access management ladders. With much needed support from the organization we can also help push boundaries as we seek help and advice to move forward.
