Eye Opening Insights:

 

[00:04:08] Stacy: I actually decided to go back and get my MBA, but the funny part is it sounds sort of accidental, but when I was in high school, they gave us this task to like write a letter to your future self. And then our teacher kept it and literally mailed it out like 10 years later. It was very cool. And I, I had on it, I will have been an engineer for three years and then I'm going to go back to get my MBA and this and that and I've happened and I had forgotten I even had the plan. 

 

[00:05:51] Stacy: And humans are the most complex problems. So that's where I think I've ended up in operations. 

 

[00:09:17] Brittany: What do you think has either been different for you and made you successful in more of a leadership role? Or what do you look for to when people are making that leap from IC to manager?
