    • “What is the function of an answer? The function of an answer is to influence.” —Brian Glibkowski
  • “If you don’t provide that right answer, then your credibility goes down.” —Brian Glibkowski
  • “We have to sort of be aware and mindful of the answers we prefer and being open to other answers.” —Brian Glibkowski
  • “If you don’t have the intelligence to communicate something as an answer, what good is it related to emotional intelligence? You can have the ability to understand what someone else is going through. If you can’t provide a story, you know, to make them feel comfortable, what good is it? So to me, this is the relationship between these constructs, emotional intelligence, and cognitive intelligence.” —Brian Glibkowski
