This week I sat down with speaker and leader Laura Gassner Otting, who wants you to stop asking "how can I help?" This was a fascinating and humbling conversation that flips the script on how we engage with problems. Rather than trying to figure out how we can be the solution to the problem Laura wants us to ask, "what needs to be done?" This simple switch can lead to more effective solutions and the right people providing them. This conversation made me rethink how I engage with problems and helped me realize how important it is to take myself out of the center of the solution.
