Leading at home and leading at work are definitely not the same animal. However, all people long to be heard and understood. Today I asked my kids 8 and 9 what they need and to share what this experience has been like for them. Some of this was hard to hear, but I am so glad I asked. A few things really stood out to me. 1. The frustrations they have are not that different from mine. 2. They are grieving the loss of life as we knew it 3. They need my undivided, full attention in larger doses now than before. 4. They are extremely gracious and compassionate little people.
