Had a great time visiting the Fair this morning and seeing our high school students teaching our 2nd graders about all things related to the farm and animals. Always fun to see our kids out of the classroom and in different setting like this!! #BurtonExperience

@Joe_Sanfelippo Already have your new book! Half way through and highly recommend for any leader who wants to have lasting impact on their organization.

Great reminder! The best conversations happen when you slow down and really be present rather than just visible!!

[Joe Sanfelippo @Joe_Sanfelippo]

Your PACE tells people if they are valued or in the way. I used to rush through the building as often as I could and called it being visible. It wasn’t. It was fast. It was checking a box. It wasn’t connected. BE PRESENT. As much as you can. #LeadFromWhoYouAre
