On this episode I am challenged as always by the high standards for honesty and integrity of my childhood friend Mira Riad. She is the founder and executive director of the Littlest Lamb, and they are responsible for more than 50 children that live at Bird Rock, which is an orphanage in the north eastern part of the Cairo metro area. As a fundamental believer in the autonomy and agency of individuals, she shares with us the struggles of being in a position where she sometimes feels the weight of responsibility of making decisions for the children at Bird Rock. She also shares with us her wisdom about how she tries to do that as best as she can, at least in part by welcoming members of her team to hold her accountable to her own high standards.
