"Every once in a while, I find somebody who is pretty forward thinking, who says our team is not broken. We need to just get better. In any situation, usually the person who hires me is the leader of the team and knows that making an investment in the team, either from getting the results, using a smooth process or enhancing the relationships is going to take the team to the next level. I wish more people use me from a more proactive stance, but oftentimes, it's we've got a difficult dynamic here, Kristin, or it would be nice if people were a little bit more proactive. " -Kristin Arnold
