As Chief has suggested a few times to Ms Dava, assessing what we've learned is critical to becoming a Leader of Character. So, Chief guides Ms Dava through an assessment of what she's learned from her experience as a leader the past few months. Ms Dava shares her thoughts and experiences on the topics of assessment, empathy, confrontation, and win-win agreements to name a few. Chief constantly reminds Ms Dava that leaders have to take a break once in a while to regenerate their energy, so they'll be taking a hiatus during the month of July. Happy Summer, Everyone! And THANK YOU for listening to our bantering!

Can a leader, especially a Leader of Character, have too much patience? Is that even possible? Is there a difference between policy and philosophy in the workplace? Is Chief right again? What is one to do? Here's another episode of Boots on the Ground Leadership, where Ms Dava shares her real-life experiences as a young boss as she strives to be a Leader of Character.

Ms Dava is having a great run as a boss! Things are going so well that she's bored. Being the experienced teacher, Chief warns her not to become complacent. Things can change drastically very quickly. He reminds her to keep striving for improvements, especially when it comes to serving her workers. And since Fathers' Day is right around the corner, Chief takes some time to share what dads REALLY want. Oh, NO! ANOTHER TIE?!
