Quotable Moments from the Show
"Open loops are the number one way people kick back responsibility. So you're trying to delegate a job to somebody and you say, I need you to accomplish this by Friday. And they say, I will, as soon as you get me the keys to the skid loader. Now it's back on you. Right?" - Martin Holland
"At the end of the day, the most important thing is when something's been communicated, when something's been asked, confirming that you have it, confirming that you're working on it, and confirming that it has been completed is closing a loop." - Khalil Benalioulhaj
