I recently wrapped up one of my favorite (and most challenging and demanding) consulting experiences. I actually felt a tinge of sadness about it, which is a rarity for me as I’m so used to this process by now. 35+ clients in 5 years, this is par for the course. But this was different. I was part of the team.

Do you know the best thing I learned? We’re stronger together.

It doesn’t matter how many years of experience you have. How many projects you’ve worked on. How many different industries you’ve spanned.

Another point of view is always valued. It’s good to challenge yourself and to be challenged. You will grow and be better for it, and so will others.

In this year of isolation, it can easy to think that we can go it alone. Perhaps we can, but we shouldn’t.

We’re stronger together.
