Take it from me, real leadership is never an easy ride. There are pearls of wisdom in this book [Navigating an Organizational Crisis] that continue to be helpful to me as a leader, though one in particular stands out: be a listener, a good listener, even when you don’t like what you’re hearing.
— Michael Dukakis, Former Governor of Massachusetts
