What an incredible week of leadership this has been (and boy is that an understatement)! Between the outpouring of support, long lines, and record sales Chick-fil-A experienced on August 1st, the attacks from misguided government officials on private enterprise, the war on free speech, the firing of former Vonte CFO/Treasurer Adam Smith, Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook’s continued fall, and the Olympics, we have all witnessed the incredible highs that come with leadership as well as the consequences and impact of poor leadership. What a week!
