  • Good but lacks diversity

    Some terrific interviews with leaders. What’s missing is stories of men and women with families - young children. What are these leaders doing with their kids early in the morning? Who is doing drop off to daycare and school? There’s a concerning lack of diversity of experience and it doesn’t reflect the reality of many modern leaders and families
