I underestimated what the transition was going to be. I worked from home since 2015. Now I'm back coming into an office that's not just an office, but there are plans. And so I really underestimated what the transition was going to be like. And I am happy that naving has given me the grace to adapt, because I know that that can become very contentious. The CEO and the coo, the relationship is so critically important that if you can't have those conversations, if you can't be transparent with each, you can't disagree vigorously, it's not going to be successful for you. And so sometimes you have to humble yourself and really listen, whether you want to hear it or not, and then process it and then do something with the feedback.
