This month we dive into a discussion lead by a leader who has worked in policy, trade, banking, and agriculture. Experienced leading not only a staff but managing a board of directors, Mr. Kirk Merritt brings to our discussion some insight on how there are times as a leader we go in front, but there are also times we step back to let those we lead be the face of our organizations. From lessons from his parents early on to experiences leading trade missions across the globe, Kirk encourages working with your team to better themselves and for new leaders to look for opportunities to take leadership on small scales to build your skills.
