@Danielle -- Yes! I copied that quote down, too. <3

01:17:01
“To lead people, walk beside them ...As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence.The next best, the people honor and praise.The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate ...When the best leader's work is done the people say,We did it ourselves!”― Lao Tzu

01:17:45
@Lavada - Thank you for sharing the full passage. <3

01:18:02
It's truly an honor to have been recruited into the J&J family by Eric. He's a great leader!

01:18:34
I love that Eric has found ways to "Do well by doing good." Don't have to be in a non-profit to truly make the world a better place and help your fellow human beings.

Allies: This month there are tons of sales on Black History and anti-racism books, including audio books! (e.g., https://www.chirpbooks.com/collections/black-history-month) If you hit the limit of your budget, check out your library. If your org doesn't have Employee Resource Groups, start your own and/or join a MeetUp.

01:27:23
Thank you for the meeting
